On the other hand, anecdotally, I had trouble getting companies to even invite me to an interview until I "amped up" my credentials on resume. It have landed me three jobs I was well suited for (in different industries). Otherwise my honest to god résumé left me not even with an opportunity.
- amelius 4y agoWhile I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing in today's world of self-(over)-promotion, how do you know you didn't rob more suitable candidates from the opportunity?
- AngriestLettuce 4y agoWhy should I care?
- red-iron-pine 4y agoSo if I am actually qualified does that mean I robbed someone, too? Fake it till you make it homie. If you can do the job then you can do the job; there is no over-promotion.
- BeFlatXIII 4y agoI do not care at all about the potential candidates I may or may not have robbed.
