“Experience”

So PERSONALLY I don't recommend people do this as a strategy... I always work with people to double down on their unique story and experience. But I also don't judge people who do exaggerate their experience in general, you do you and you live with yourself. I do judge against flat out lying vs embellishing your projects and do not support people lying. I think it's very unethical on the side of the executive that does them though. The students might not know better and might be just trying to make a better life for themselves, but the executive does know what they are doing.
