UNEMPLOYMENT TIP OF THE DAY: Lie to prospective Employers
======================

I know it sounds obvious to all your job seekers...

when you're interviewing for a possible job, never tell them you can't do something. This is especialy true if it's something core to the job. Embellish or outright lie about your novice understanding of the skill (even thought they want a seasoned expert), then go home and study up on it.

By the time they actually get around to hiring you or even the next interview, you'll be at a strong mediocre level. If you talk a good game, then telling how mediocre you are is hard for even the most seasoned of hiring managers.
