So how are they catching onto those fabricated career coups?
Well, your online paper trail (aka LinkedIn profile) have caught out candidates, while others were caught out when asked to produce copies of qualifications to their interview round.
In more positive news, 40% of employers are seeing the return of candidates from abroad, with workers from UK, Australia and Canada rejoining the Irish workforce.
