Lies I told on my CVI've not had to lie on my CV (resumé for all you 'merkins) for a while, but way back when I was a teenager and C was a cool programming language, I listed it as one of my skills.
My new boss was remarkably nice about me spending my first week's employment reading a "how to program in C" book.

HmmmA couple of points from my CV..
I have passed my A Levels, GNVQs and all my GCSEs.
The 2 years I spent getting fired from every job I had are now listed as the period in which I was a full time carer, assisting in my father's recovery from a 'stroke'.
The rest of my CV is made up of 'temp' contracts via agencies (the reality is that I have had 32 full-time permanent jobs since leaving school and have been fired from 27 of those).
I list my interests as web design (I once made a geocities page with some pirated software linked to it), skiing (although I only went once), going to the gym (I believe I spend about 6 months going regularly…in 1996), socialising (getting wankered with my mates on Jack n' coke).
My referees are my 2 best mates who have been primed and forewarned.
Ahh it's all good! :)
Mwahahahahahahahahahahaha!
