Madness. They will be found out straight away even if they get the job.
We just binned someone who claimed 4 years experience as a dev but didn’t know the difference between the different brackets that you use. -
@TrevorTheRat He was found out. By me. A month later. The manager insisted in giving him a chance even when he consistently failed to do the minimum he had to do for every deadline.

@TrevorTheRat <Python dev looking around nervously> There might be some brackets I don't remember...

So basically another evidence that a little bit of lies in your resume won't hurt.
If I didn't lie a little bit, I won't be where I am today.
Of course too much lies will get you only trouble as they will eventually find out. -
rittmann1053yI can't lie in interviews, I prefer to say that I don't know it. That have been good for me, at the end of the day I know what I know, and I know that I know more than a lot of coworker even if I don't how to explain something that the interviewer got from some cool devblog
