'I led that project': Guy puts random coworker down as a reference, she exposes the lies on his resume
It's probably not a good idea to take credit for a former coworker's work on your resume and then list that person as a reference. It was only a matter of time before the lies on this dude's resume would be uncovered and proven false.
Now, I am sympathetic to someone feeling backed into a corner during an interview process and having to cough up a name as a reference out of nowhere. However, surely this guy could have considered literally anyone else. Perhaps the people who did work closely with him were inappropriate because their working relationships didn't end on good terms. Perhaps it didn't even cross this guy's mind that he lied on his resume, which means he's simply delusional and has possibly normalized his own delusions. Either way, it was the wrong choice and it did not end well for him.
