I read about this website and its services online today, and I am shocked!
Careerexcuse.com provides services that allows you to "choose your career history". Sounds suspicious yet?
On the website, it explains how to create the perfect employment history. You can choose your industry, position title, salary, and other important employment details. They also provide a real company address, a company logo, and even a phone number. They even offer letters of recommendation for those who don't have one. On the faq site they state that since a resume is not a legal document, it is not illegal to lie on one.
Go visit it yourself: http://careerexcuse.com/index.html
Isn't this ridiculous? This seems to undermine the very process of hiring on recommendations and references. Actually, a google search of "fake career history" brought up many other websites providing similar services.
What about after getting the job by using such services? The new hire would have gotten the job as an unqualified employee since he needed the fake references. This might get him the job, but it won't help him keep it.
