Dwellable founder gets résumé from developer who claims he created Dwellable

Misleading headline. It should be "Someone adds fake job to his resume and gets busted". But I guess that would get less clicks.

seeded by geerwire? I wonder

That would underplay the story too much. The person who had their work claimed by someone else found out and broke the story. The only misleading word is "from".

I would actually love to know the true percentage of resumes falsified by programmers today? Surely plenty of other people are lying about education or relevant work experience just to get past an HR filter (not that you can justify it easily).

so recruiter didn't pay attention to that part?

"a recruiter friend passed on a résumé from an individual who claimed to have created [...] Dwellable"

That person didn't apply for a job at Dwellable. That would have been pretty idiotic. It sounds like a recruiter who just happened to know the actual founder of Dwellable came across that resume.

maybe the guy meant he created airbnb and got confused, since they're the exact same service.
