far be it for me to tell you to lie,but jobs are hard to come by….do what you have to do and GET THAT JOB!!!! worry about them small stuff later…..

gus i guess you give me the thump down…you maybe right but jim g is layied off and hads to much time on his hands…your right. i’m just saying,jim g may lie to work….hay! we all fall short…..

Never lie in a job interview.

Never deliberately introduce a subject which shows you to your worst advantage but, if someone else introduces the subject, tell the truth with a minimum of hyperbolae.

I would never hire anyone who lied during the interview, and I usually won’t consider anyone who even gives me the impression that he/she might even be equivocating.

I find truth the happiest way to live, for that matter. Not to the point where you hurt others when you could slide away from the precise truth, but the truth even when it hurts, if you are obligated to answer.

later: case in point is Jim’s answer. If you get a job by lying, you can lose it by being found out. Just guess what reference you’ll get when your next job interviewer checks your employment history by calling personally. I always did that, before making a final job offer.

You want the job? Lie. Its simple. As far as the rest. If they don’t ask, don’t tell. Simple.
