Do employers *usually* verify ranks/titles when hiring?
For example can I round up 6-7 months of experience at M level to say 1 year during an interview?

You can round up to whatever but don't be surprised if your background check fails and they retire the offer as that is contingent upon not lying on your resume.

Lol “can I double the amount of experience I have?”

Why can’t you just say “about a year”? No lies there

I’m pretty sure “rank” and “dates worked” is basically the only thing that gets verified.

My HR forcibly rescinded an offer for someone I wanted to hire who claimed a year somewhere but had 6 months that came out in the background check, if that helps.

Just be honest and don’t put yourself in a position of having to explain why you weren’t.

This will be verified in background check. Don’t do it

You should go back to being a staff

Just don’t do it. There’s thing called background verification. Just be honest and put stretch to prove yourself.

One thing is to dress up your work and make it sound nice, another is to lie about something that can be verified in 2 seconds...

There’s little to no upside for a major risk. Just doesn’t make any sense.

Verification is last job title and number of years, and with your signed permission your salary (but hardly any company is doing this anymore).

Hey friends! So I left PwC (risk assurance, did a bit of consulting) about 4 years ago for industry, and have been working in supply chain ever since for a major retailer.

I know it wouldn’t be quite the same as the hours as big 4, but I don’t know enough to be sure if it’s the right fit. Any advice?
