Dear Ravishankar Venna,
Really very happy in reading your blog & Finally got in tears after reading completely..
Yes--people are faking their resumes--because if you keep the word fresher in your resume--they may have a fear-- not get even a phone call also from any big/Small Software companies( you may get some consultancy calls informing you that let me check with the Client and they will never turn back)
Recently i had a discussion with my friend's uncle(working as a recruiter in some Software company).This discussion really changed my mind set too--why i will tell you in detail...
Conversation:
Me: Uncle--what are the Job opportunities for SAP-SD?
Uncle: see--SAP is the world where always open for talent and smart(Please note this word smart is more required in Software industry--May not be that much relevant in others--i am taking the meaning of word "smart"-- in both positive and negative)
Me: Uncle--once you got some resumes what will be your approach in selection?
Uncle: See phani--99.99% of Resumes in SAP are fake--so i can find & remove fake resumes in seconds--But if i do so--i may have 1 out of 1000...Then think from my point of view what i need to do? i know that this resume is fake but no chance for me except forwarding it to my people...
Me: if you know it is fake--why forwarding?
Uncle: see--Once a guy has put some fake experience in his resume--his consciousness always warns him(negative for him) and Positive for me...why i will tell you--once you keep fake in resume of some 3+ years--may be after my interview--if he got selected--if any works assigned to him will be making him to respond in a much faster way than a Fresher---
If i take a fresher--to accomplish some work--it may take 10 days(i need to spend my entire time,salary,patience initially to train him)
But if i take faked guy--so he himself finds his own ways and can accomplish my work may be in 2-3 days(if any mistakes done--still i will be there in correcting these)
Now think what we need to Do????
Fake Experience Or Fresher....
This is what was happen in my case and initially i truly believe that your knowledge can give you the right place...so initially i kept my resume in Naukri as fresher--do you believe that i got just 3 phone calls in a span of six months that to from consultancy and informed that they will check with their client and will come back(actually they didn't even turned back)(actually i am not certified too)
After this i kept some Fake experience of 3+,this time i receive the Interview calls---actually i got good number of calls and attended,
finally failed due to unable to catch what exactly interviewer asking me!!!!!
So now think from my point of View--what to do to Go ahead?
Meanwhile your family/Financial Conditions makes you to enter nasty words like keeping fake in Resumes....
But let me tell you i got my Job where i learnt SAP...( Now i am in Support Project)(This also I got by keeping some 1.5 years of Fake--But client liked my approach and taken the risk of selecting me)(actually i have been supporting this client through online- number of times previously)
But PERKS are very little--that's OK.
Sorry--even the Teachers are taking money from students to refer them and as well as for their fake telephone interviews...
This is what the Current situation is.....
I strongly believe--"""Once teacher got corrupted ----the entire society will be corrupted""""
I recently studied in my Face book account which really made me to come out of this frustration:
"""IF YOU FOLLOW MOTION---KILLS EMOTIONS""""
I strongly feel that my God ordered me to stop all these nasty things by these messages and through the people like you all &
recently i deactivated all my accounts in Naukri , Monster & Times Jobs...which contains my fake experience.
Let me try again with a fresh mind and all you people are with me every time wherever i stuck...
Thanks for your patience in reading this...
If i wrote any thing wrong--please excuse me...

After Effects Once I removed my Fake resume in all Job Sites:
Dear All
As i shared after Deactivating all my accounts in job sites--Today morning i got the call from the HR of a very well reputed company and she asked me for the updated CV-once i told the truth--then she further stopped the Discussion--Finally said thanks for the Information and disconnected my call !!!!!!
Let me see what are all the other worst things i can hear in coming future :wink:
But it is better to face worst things than later times :cool:
