Two common reasons why people fake their CVs are:
- To enhance their qualifications and experience: People may falsify their CVs to present themselves as more qualified or experienced than they actually are. This can help them appear more competitive and improve their chances of securing a job interview or position, especially in a highly competitive job market.
- Due to desperation or fear of rejection: Some individuals fake their CVs because they are desperate to find employment after a long period of unemployment or because they fear that their actual qualifications and experience will lead to rejection. They may believe that lying on their CV is the only way to get their "foot in the door" or to meet specific job requirements.
These motivations reflect both external pressures and personal fears that drive candidates to fabricate information on their CVs.
