Last Monday morning the CBC's show 'The Current' included some interesting thoughts regarding resume fraud and the final guest commented on how employers also misrepresent the opportunities they have. Certainly worth a listen as it helps you to understand the playing field.

Great article!
I thought I’d share with you a great new, free tool to help job seekers: http://www.preverify.com
PreVerify is a free tool with which job seekers can conduct their own accurate and professional employment verifications. Following the quick and simple registration process, simply send your PreVerify request to your former and current employers to complete online at a time that is convenient for them to do so. No more interruptive phone calls, just an employment verification that can be used over and over again, forever.
Rather than crowd this email with a bunch of words, attached are two recent articles that talk about PreVerify:
