Jerry Lee, co-founder at Wonsulting, created a fake resume under the name "Kismma D. Nhuhts", π€ filling it with impressive experiences and some suspicious details. He applied to 100 product manager jobs to see if recruiters would notice the red flags or just focus on brand names. After a few weeks, despite the absurd points in the resume, Jerry managed to get 29 interview invitations! How did every third recruiter not notice the fake? π€―
