Lying on Resumes

I found a lot of information on George O'Leary The former Notre Dame coach who was forced to resign after it was found out that he lied on his resume. Mr O'Leary Lead Notre Dame to believe that he lettered in football at Delaware university. When Notre Dame found out that this was not true, they felt like they had to let him go.
I also found that its pretty common for people to lie on there resume. When you really want a job it is tempting to exaggerate the truth sometime. Think about being hired for something that wasn't true. It wouldn't be worth losing your job or the fear of your lies might be let out one day. It basically comes down to lying on your resume is not worth it, and doing anything to get ahead that is untruthfully should be avoided at all costs. You will never have to worry about your reputation if you aren't risking it.
