Disney JobSeeking Day11: Pinocchio
Lying Will Get You Nowhere
You might be tempted to exaggerate on an application, but those lies can grow and grow far beyond your control and suddenly, you are stuck in a big mess.
Lying always comes back to haunt you. Lying might even get you stuck in some situations and you could possibly lose the trust of your employer or the hiring company. If you lie, be prepared to face the consequences during an interview, maybe during a skills test or even later in your job. It will definitely earn you a negative reaction.
There is an easier way. Not having a certain skill or not having done something may not be beneficial, but you can put in the effort and accomplish the task if you put your mind to it. Simply state what you know and identify what you can learn.
If you don’t meet your dream job requirements, hold off on applying for it and get the relevant information and skills required to apply. Set yourself goals to complete techniques or technologies relevant to that requirement. And come back, more confident than ever, with the knowledge of the material and the role.
“A lie keeps growing and growing until it’s as plain as the nose on your face.”
Key Points:
> Don’t exaggerate your skills/ talents
> Work for what you want
