<p>No one is claiming that proper verification occurs in every case. But it occurs in at least some cases. You might “get away” with it. Or you might “get caught”. You make it seem like you will either always “get away” with it, or that the consequences if you “get caught” are always minimal.</p>
<p>If you were a hiring manager, what would your choice be in each case? And what do you expect most hiring managers to answer?</p>
<p>A. You see a candidate whose resume says “UM”. Do you assume UM-AA, UM-other, or would you as explicitly which UM it is before deciding whether to bring the candidate for an interview? If it was not UM-AA, would that affect whether you bring the candidate in for an interview?</p>
<p>B. You bring in a candidate with “UM” on the resume that you assumed was UM-AA. But you find out before hiring that the actual school was UM-F. Would that affect whether you hire that person?</p>
<p>C. You hired someone from “UM” that you assumed was UM-AA. But you later find out it was UM-F. Would that affect how you deal with the person at work?</p>
