Codesmith Grads - Stop lying on your background checks. Your OSP is not 'employment history'. I've received a number of couple of people having trouble with background checks because they put their project as 'work experience'. STOP.

Kind of sucks you have to be "vague" but then make clickbait titles like "Codesmith Grads - Stop lying on your background checks" as if it's the norm when it's not. Also, what's with "I've received a number of couple of people"? "A number" makes it sound like a ton of people whil

A couple of people with evidence, you can't edit titles on Reddit. I see it all the time myself. DO you know how many grads applied to my company with zero experience for a senior role requiring 6 years of FAANG experience. Codesmith leaders can't explain why, but it's the norm and not an anomaly.
