I answer a question for someone about whether they can use a fake reference and get away with it.
Do you really think employers are trying to help you?
You already know you can’t trust recruiters—they tell you as much as they think you need to know to take the job they after representing so they collect their payday.
The skills needed to find a job are different yet complement the skills needed to do a job.

I find it much more onerous when I get my references all set up, and no-one
ever contacts them. References for companies that have either gone under,
acquired, or downsized into oblivion are hard to get by, and managers
retire, or become unresponsive. i typically give references of people I
worked with that have seen my work, very seldom managers

What if you are required a job reference letter to get accepted. You got the necessary skill, but missing work experience. I say fake it til you make it, in this scenario, you are letting a opportunity go to waste
Differential Equations “I have all the skills to be a doctor …”. “I gave all the skills do ….” I am sure you would not think it a good idea to lie
It is ok to lie when it works for you but you would not want it happening to you.

fake it till u make it. this guy is talking like a saint. is he never lie? anyway if u cant get away with it. move on and next please. if employer can check your ex employer for reference. then why cant employees check their ex employees too for reference.
Of course, you can check in employer’s references. It’s called Google them, Glassdoor them (not as useful) or look them up on LinkedIn. As for being a saint, do you want to get caught? As a former recruiter, I remember the times and people were. They were greeted by security on Friday afternoon. Some were allowed to box up their possessions. Some had been sent to them. They were not allowed to return to the desk. They will have to go home to tell their (in the cases that I knew about) wives and children that they were fired for lying on the application. Everyone makes their own choice.
