It's true that he passed the interviews and everyone seemed to love him, but would you hire someone who lied to the extent that he did?

Of course I would not hire him, but I left this comment because this artificial gate-keeping that pushed the hire to lie is a ridiculous trend.

Let's say that this hire didn't lie on his resume, he would still successfully pass the interview but he would never get to that point anyways.
