is it fine to lie on a job application and say i have customer service experience when i don't

Anonymous 16w

I personally wouldn’t say anything like target, tj maxx etc. because they can legally call the company to verify if they are inclined You could say your mom or dad own a business like a food market or something since I don’t think they’d have a way to check?

There you go you could use that Add it to your resume and underneath put a bullet point saying “provided customer service to the business’ clients”

And then if they ask about experience during your interview you can say “although i haven’t worked in a *whichever kind of job you’re applying for* I have worked for my mom’s appraisal business which allowed me to provide customer service to our clients”
