Lying about something because a friend or someone else suggested it would make their resume look better.

Telling the truth is always your best bet.

Lying on your resume is something that you might consider doing to make yourself look better than you actually are, especially when you are applying for a job(s) you really want.

If you choose to lie about your background, be prepared to get caught because chances are, you will get exposed at some point.

Lies – especially ones that relate to your career and your ability to do a certain job – often have a tendency to get discovered sooner or later.

In my experience as a recruiter, the most common subjects that people lie about include:

Stating incorrect (ie. higher) salary and compensation than they were actually paid

The real reason they left their last job

When they left their last job

Listing degrees that they don’t actually have ie. they’re a few credits short (yes, that’s a lie)

Embellished responsibilities, job title or functions or all three

When you inevitably get caught in a lie(s), you could end up being in more trouble than if you’d simply told the truth from the start.

Even if you’ve already been hired, if your employer finds out that you lied about something serious during the interview process, they might still fire you.

If you were fired from your last job and now get fired again from your new employer for lying about it, now you’ll have to explain two firings the next time you’re looking for a job.
