I'm seeing a lot of resumes lately where the skills don't match the reality. I had a candidate claim mastery in a tool but then fail a simple logic check. How do you pivot once you realize a candidate has oversold themselves? Is it worth staying on the call?

End the call politely and move onto the next one.
