Summary:

It can be tempting for recent graduates to exaggerate or pad out their resumes in order to secure a job. This case study focuses on Johann Schultz, a soon-to-be graduate with a degree in computer science, who doesn't quite meet all of the requirements for a job he wishes to apply for. Readers are asked to evaluate the implications of altering details of work experience or employment history, both in terms of the individual employee and for the overall organization.
