The Minister of Propaganda
Everyone lies at one point of time or the other, but perhaps not to an extent of being the assistant to the prime minister of a country. And that’s what a job seeking candidate did. Furthermore, this so called assistant of the PM claimed to be the assistant to the prime minister of a foreign country that doesn't have a prime minister. Well, this is a biggest whooper one can do to seek a job, guess this candidate needs to immediately do a Google search for goodness sake or ask Siri or Cortana.
Foul Shot
At times your hobbies matter to the employers to judge your candidature, but this candidate took a foul shot by claiming that he’s been a high school basketball free throw champion. Why? We have no idea.  May be this candidate thought that free throwing might just land him in a job but this kind of silly lies can just backfire and kill an individual’s job chances.
