I sourced and executed a 1000bn sellside. Hire me?

How do you define a lie ?

Our team requires technical skills (OO/scripting/DB languages etc.). I’ve had people advertise these on their resumes and fall completely flat on even the most basic questions

Just want to cry out here.🙃

I'm not good at my tech stack. I've somehow managed to perform all my tasks without any escalation/blunders but that also by some help/googling.
I also managed to switch from an Indian mnc to a reputed company and now also somehow cleared a FAANG interview,but i know I'm not much knowledgeable in my tech .

I often fail at some interviews badly.
Not sure till when I'll be able to carry forward by this and the hard wlb at FAANG companies is giving me a fear.
