Same for me. That said, there are different levels of cheating. If I knew Laravel but I lie in my resume that I know Zend, that is not a big deal. If I lie to a patient that I have done brain surgery when I haven't, then that is on a whole another level. I know someone who used to be a QA person. She had a baby and didn't work for a few years. When she went back to work, she said she was a business analyst before, got the job, did very well. Now she is doing BA work for multiple teams at the same time. Was it wrong for her to lie? Maybe, but she didn't hurt anyone and everything worked out in the end. So maybe not? Also note that a lot of people are forced to lie, because employers are not flexible. Say I want to code Ruby but I only know Python. It is not a big deal for me to pick up Ruby, but most employers won't even give me an interview if I don't lie in my resume about Ruby. Blame the system and not the players?
