FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions:
​
"What happens if I don't get hired?" = Keep applying until you do.
1. Is it illegal to lie on your resume?
No, a resume is not a legal document, and you are not trying to be a doctor or lawyer. The feds don't care about your job hunt.
2. What do I do if I want a job that I don't have the experience for?
Say you have the experience for it, so you can get hired for the job and get trained on the job for it like everyone else. You didn't have experience for your first cashier, retail, fast food, or waitress position, and you still applied to that and did what?
​
You learned how to do it from the training, and you gained the experience as you were getting paid. Do that again for a higher-paying role.
3. How long does it take to land a new role in this job market?
I have clients who have been hired into 6-figure remote director and senior-level roles in the 2026 job market in as long as 60 days, and other clients who received their job offers in as little as 8 days from the initial Recruiter reach out on LinkedIn, to an offer letter in hand.
It really just depends, and it is a case by case scenario. But just because it took another job seeker 2 months to get hired doesn't mean that it is going to take you that long to get hired. Don't base your results on the results of someone else because it could be a lot quicker for you.
