I'm applying to a job at Microsoft and am short 1 year experience for the minimum requirements. The online application prompts me to answer Y or N if I meet the minimum requirements.

I know I can do the job, so I don't want to put No because I know that that would immediately filter me out of the applicant pool. Would there be repercussions if I were to unthruthfully select "yes" for the minimum requirements?

No, don't overthink it - interviewers will unlikely scrutinise this
