I have an endless supply of real references so it was more of a hyperthetical question. I'm wondering how prevalent it is though. I've never had to lie to get a job.
Yeah I'm lucky in that regard too tbh, and am now in a position to see it from the other side, an applicant was declined which prompted this post, I know a lot of people who aren't so lucky, especially if you hl can't use your current employer or have a large gap in your work history you can't or don't want to explain
