Rah-PM 2012
I don't understand why people keep pushing me to bullsh*t my way into a job. If I don't know something, I'm not going to straight up lie about it to get my foot in the door. I can't do that. It doesn't matter if I can figure it out later (which I could), it just isn't right.
I would think so. - Rah-PM 2012
You don't have to lie. Try, "I've never used that, but I'm reasonably familiar with it's capabilities, and based on my track record I'm sure I can be productive very quickly" - Michael R. Bernstein
I'm being advised to apply for stuff that I just don't qualify for. The argument being that employers don't really know what they're looking for...or something. - Rah-PM 2012
Rah, I've screened a bunch of resumes and nothing chafes me more than interviewing someone who lied about a skill that's required for the job. It used to make me crazy. - ha3rvey ($10 HUGS!!!)
