    Lying for a Job

    Lying for a Job: Tonight
    on ITV1 8:00pm - 8:30pm

    Research shows that a quarter of job-hunters lie about their qualifications. Jonathan Maitland exposes some of the most common lies, and carries out a unique experiment to show how easily employers can be deceived.

    Looks like there might be some handy tips for being creative with the CV.
    Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

    I doubt that anyone on here needs help in that direction.

    The people featured will probably be denizens of CUK suitably disguised to protect them from being identified.
    It's Deja-vu all over again!

          If you're really lying then employers/clients aren't deceived for long.

          I was working at company 1 with this guy who was totally useless at what he did that I ended up covering for him more often than not.
          He left there to go to company 2 about a week before I started work at company 2 also.
          He lasted 2 weeks before company 2 sussed him out and he got the boot!
          It's Deja-vu all over again!

            Hopefully none will resort to wearing Y-fronts on their head with a couple of chopsticks up their nose.

                    Plays havoc when I'm eating spaghetti hoops though.
