She’s already shown she has mental problems. Seems unwise to poke that bear.

depends on where she's applying. if it's for a larger company, then absolutely. If it's a small business owner, one could put all sorts of bullshite on their resume, and I doubt they'd even look into their references or credentials. I think you'd be surprised at how little research some businesses actually put into their hiring.



She was probably looking to get a job under our mayor

She apparently doesnt do anything at all with background checks and verifying credentials

I can assure you nobody wants a job on top of our mayor.

You know that might not actually be her. Bianca White doesn't sound like it's probably an uncommon name.

Yea they did. They use a service that vets education and backgrounds. You probably had a clause in the paperwork that mentioned the offer was contingent.
Some companies will ask you to do the legwork and have transcripts sent to them from school or bring a certified copy

I worked for several companies of similar size, none ever required me to produce a diploma or transcript. Unless you sign a release for your schools to release your records a background check will not verify your education, only your criminal history or lack of one.

During undergrad, there was a girl in my department working feverishly to finish a project one night. Turned out, her family and friends had arrived to town that weekend to see her graduate. She said she was given special permission to work all the way up until the graduation ceremony to finish her senior project.

A bunch of us pulled an all-nighter that night to finish our individual projects, and we noticed that at some point during the night, the girl had left without finishing hers.

She walked the next day, her family and friends unaware that she hadn't actually graduated.

My degree from LSU worked like this.

I walked across, got the purple diploma cover. After the ceremony I went to the back and they had my real thing ready.
