I lied on my resume?

I lied on my resume about my dates of employment. My old boss and I are great friends and he said he would vouch for my dates that I put down. Other then speaking with him is there another way a potential employer can find out my dates of employment?

Who doesn't lie...it is not like you totally made a fake job...it's just a little white lie about length of employment.

forget about them finding out, why did you lie on your resume? young lady, you don't need to lie on your resume even if u and he were good friends. alot depends on what type of job you are going for which will determine the depth of the background check.

if they really wanted to they could but i don't think that they will. i lie on resume about employment dates too. i haven't had a problem yet.

If you lie to your future employer about previous employment dates, what else will you lie about?
No. Lying is never a good option.
All the Best.
