Slow Motion posted:Lie on your resume. Make up a work history. Your lack of work is a HUGE red flag that hiring managers are interpreting to mean you're unemployable (which is bullshit. But that's how they see it). Then when you go in to interview let them know what you did and why. Not right away. Make a good impression first. Then halfway through the interview let them know. Ask how it makes them feel. If they say they can't hire you having learned that information ask them what they would do in your position. Basically let that interviewer train you for the next. Rinse. Repeat. Most reputable, half-decent employers will call up your old employers to confirm your dates of employment. And if they can't reach said employer, they'll request a paystub or Record of Employment. If you can't provide any of these they'll terminate you. I've seen people get walked out of the office for this. It's a walk of shame that's 100% preventable. My suggestion- indicate that you were doing some sort of self-study/online courses while you were unemployed. But, holy crap for all that is sacred, if you're applying for anything that's better than a Carl's Greasy Spoon do not lie about your work history. melon cat fucked around with this message at 23:15 on Aug 10, 2014 |

slap me silly posted:- Don't obfuscate your dates of employment (it's really obvious when people do that) but do list it like this: Everything else slap me silly has said is rock-solid, though.
