Inside every confident employee is a total impostor. Following the rule of the chicken and the egg, nobody really knows how to do a job until they do the job, right? Truthfully, I've lied on a few resumes in the past and in getting the job (through a confident and charismatic interview, of course), and with a ton of extra side work on Google, I've managed my way through my fair share of troublesome work conundrums without a lick of experience.
Similarly, the tech guy in this next story was actually not a computer guru at all. After lying on his resume, he somehow landed a job as an advanced coder for a company. We've all been there in the job searching frenzy, throwing out our resumes to any company that will read it. But to this guy's surprise, he was hired.
