but how many interviews can one take? The applicants are many more - so one way is to restrict people on the basis of academics. That's not really wrong. Also, we should be concerned because people who have REAL resumes AND PERFORM WELL SHOULD get better recognition and salary. Lastly, say you recruit a guy with 2 yrs fake exp and he is working. Tomorrow, if it is found out that he has committed a crime 1.5 years back and has faked many other things (other than resume) to change his life, WHAT WILL YOU DO?
