Using false qualifications

Description

Using false qualifications involves deliberately presenting fabricated or exaggerated credentials, skills, or experience to gain access to opportunities, positions, or resources. This strategy is typically employed to bypass legitimate selection processes, secure employment, or gain trust and authority. Its practical intent is to remedy barriers posed by insufficient qualifications. Countermeasures include rigorous verification of credentials, reference checks, and the implementation of transparent, standardized assessment procedures to ensure authenticity and maintain integrity.
