I'm sick of getting the shi# end of the stick, and I've decided that I'm going to lie on my resume. I've seen too many idiotic people get a job that pays way better than what I'll ever make just because they have a college degree. I don't have a college degree YET, but I'm getting straight A's in school, and I have a lot of work experience. Does anyone in YA land have experience with lying on their resumes? Any stories about how you lied and got the job as a result? I really need some encouragement! I'm going to apply for a business analyst position and think I have all my bases covered. I've even made some fake transcripts with a seal of the college printed on them. I doctored the transcripts with my name by using real ones. I'm aware of the possibility that an employer will do a background check on my education qualifications, but they do that BEFORE they hire someone. So, I'm still employed; therefore, I have nothing to lose, right? Should I lie on my resume, or be more patient?

I had an interview a couple of days ago with three different managers, and they have called me to come for a second interview. However one of the managers has told me that a human resource manager will conduct the final interview, he had told me that this interview will sort of be a psychological interview. what is this interview? and what are my chances?

I am graduating from college this month and have been applying for jobs for the past month or so. My current location doesn't offer many job opportunities so the vast majority of jobs I have applied for are out of state. How do I convince employers in my cover letter to hire an out-of-state and entry-level candidate? I'm not expecting my relocation expenses to be paid.

As I write this, the office big mouth - backstabber - shirker - blamer is packing her boxes and cleaning out her file cabinets. I had nothing to do with her ultimate demise -- management finally wised up and realized that she was a criminal waste of space.

The taste of justice is so sweet in my mouth that I can't help but to keep imbibing.

Any suggestions on how I can assuage my guilt at taking so much pleasure at her demise?

My Friend (A) is in a dispute with someone, who hired a lawyer (B). B threatened A that they would contact A's employer and tell them about what was going on, if A did not do a certain thing by a certain date for their client. A's employer has nothing to do with the dispute. Is this legal what B has done? If not, what can I do to get back at B? They have made my friend A a basket case by saying this!

First, I had two phone interviews with this company initially. On Tuesday, they flew me 570 miles for a face to face interview. I met with seven different people. I feel the CFO is the decision maker and he really liked me. He made a few comments such as, "would you consider a different position with us in addition to the one you applied for," "you had some really good questions," and "what date are you available?"

He also said he liked my education background (I am a CPA, blah, blah, blah). He said a decision would be made in one to three days. Today is day three and is the Friday before the weekend.

What do you think my chances are for a job offer? I met with others as well, but couldn't read them as closely. I met the two people I would be working with and felt like I really hit it off with them as well.

She micromanages, sets unrealistic deadlines, is an annoying perfectionist and is not interested in feedback or opinions. It's either her way or the highway.

I hate female bosses. Give me a male boss any day.

P.S. Yes I am female.

I have an interview later today. I am pretty psyched as the company recently opened a call center about 2 blocks from my house, but I'm also pretty apprehensive. I have had to call Comcast several times in the past and the employees I have dealt with were usually extremely rude and a little less than well versed. Any insight about working there?

Also, they require 2 to 2 1/2 hours for the interview process with "testing". What kinds of tests do you have to go through? Do they actually test your computer skills? Oral and written skills?

What can I expect?????
