Dont tell em you already lied or mite be fired for lieing.
Never utter the word “lied.” Instead, “I think I may have made a mistake.”
If you can do the job just don’t say anything.
And when they do the background check and found you lied, it can be grounds for termination.
What about saying I’m still employed in an interview when I’m not?
