I'm not telling you not tell the truth, I'm telling you to consider that list of skills on a job description is a wishlist and only answer what is asked in the interview.

I've interviewed more people than I can count, leading to more hirings than I can count, and I don't remember any case where the candidate met all the checkboxes on the ideal skillset. Because what goes in the job description is the perfect candidate not the minimum.

When I found out the list of qualifications could be filled on the job it made applying a lot easier because I was no longer worried about bring 'found out' for not being fully qualified on day one. I blame the position wording making it sound like day one requirements and HR treating them as day one requirements

So you're saying that you're the one doing the lying when you fill out the job description?
