«This sin almost every competitor and knows about every employer - says career consultant and mentor on the search of the companyJob Search Coach Vera Ignatkina.- As a rule, applicants throws a new wage from 10 to 50% of the old level. "According to experts, the crisis applicants have become more daring in the issue of fictitious gain.

worth careful approach to this issue."I know a case when the candidate insisted three times the amount of his salary at the same place of work proving the size of what he earned as much there - says Vera Ignatkina of Job Search Coach.- HR-manager of the company had employees and friends asked how such a specialist earns.When she called the sum of three times lower, the applicant was denied a job at the same time it was caught in a lie, to protest what was practically nothing. "

«I cut»
Another common way to deception - to explain his dismissal of reductions in the company."I am a financier of the company went to the scandal on a personal matter: squabbled with boss, and she did her best to put me, - says Elena Vladimirova.- I was fired for being "did not pass the certification."To get a new job, the interview said that he was made redundant.I thought that bring labor later, when no one look for what I got fired.However, the employer telephoned the former company and found out the details.The place I did not get. "

According to experts, the tumultuous time reductions are long gone.Check lie can be turned for advice to ex-boss.But will it make the employer - is another question.

«The circle of my duties was much wider than the supposed»
One of the fundamentally new kinds of lies was exaggerating the number of its own duties in a previous job.Since many companies to combine the posts can not be issued, there is no way to check on the honesty of the candidate.

«Sometimes there are situations where an applicant in order to get the position, stretching the truth a bit, for example, says it can perform the duties that we have to ask him - said sleeves turer-per-group selection of personnel Personnel Center" Unity "Olga Rybalova.- But when you begin to ask more detailed questions about the specifics of these duties, the applicant is responsible too general, that the witness exists about its lack of competence in this area.We do, respectively sponding conclusions. "

«I lost my job because the company went bankrupt»
as the reason for termination is often called the bankruptcy of the company."Check lie easy, - says Vera Ignatkina.- If the company is large, well-known, it is in the public eye, which means that the media will be plenty of interesting news.If the company is small, it is more difficult to check, but you can. "For example, a corporate website can easily confirm that the company is very much alive.

Also do not forget that at one end of the market the company's competitors are very familiar with each other and about the events taking place at the neighbor, know better than end-users.

«I did not sit without work, and worked freelance»
Artful candidate, when asked the recruiter about why he had so long looking for a new place, it refers to freelance work.The workbook freelance usually not recorded, so the staff boldly ascribes to himself additional experience.

«After leaving, I decided to arrange a holiday.My vacation was delayed for six months.When I realized that the accumulated money coming to an end, we had to start looking for a new job - shares his experience system administrator Yuri Nikolashkin.- Asked the recruiter why I've been sitting idle, I go up a story about how doing freelancing without design and how I cheated sneaky employer.When I asked what the company treated me like I mumbled something unintelligible, and said he did not want to spoil the image of the entire company.My interlocutor practically in tears, and I got the job. "

Be careful."We will collect recommendations from former employers to be confident in the Applicant", - says Olga Rybalova of Personnel Center "Unity."If you are working without registration, try to err: Agreement with the former chief of the oral performance in the event of a call, get a written response, save the description of completed projects, and so on. N.

«My position was removed from the staffing»
Sometimes in orderto hide his demotion, the applicant stated that his position because of the crisis has been eliminated."I was dropped because the new head of the team decided to recruit from - says adman Nikita Borisenko.- The salary is also reduced, so I decided to look for a better place.At the interview he lied that the post was abolished.I believe. "

Staffing - internal document, the information from which the employer will not share too much, so this fact is difficult to verify."In any case, the employer will have to pay attention to the range of tasks that are performed before and after the candidate reduction, the extent of liability, and so on. N. And after that to conclude, check this information or not," - says Vera Ignatkina.
