>how did we know he wasn't lying about certain achievements or even jobs from the past //

Why would it matter if he could demonstrate the right level of proficiency for the tasks you wished him to perform?



It's not just that he may have lied about other stuff on his resume - he could lie on the job, which can be very destructive.


See now, that's exactly what I'm talking about.

Because demonstrating consistency, future performance, trust, respect for coworkers, and self-confidence is involved in the "right level" for many?
