Hi, I know it is very rude of me to do this. I am an Indian. I lost my Mom at the age of seven, and my dad remarried. I have passed my 2nd Pu, but later on, when I was in my 2nd year, my dad got me married to an uneducated boy who didn't let me continue my education. After 18 months of marriage, I lost my husband in an accident. Four months later, I started working. Now I have a 4-year-old child. I'm earning only Rs. 6000, but it is not enough. I have 4 years of experience in customer services and counseling in educational institutes. Recently, I got a new job where they are ready to pay me Rs. 11000 per month. It's a complete patient coordination job in a hospital. Graduation is a must, and they have asked me to submit a photocopy of my graduation certificate. I have no choice but to provide a fake one. What should I do? Can a company take legal action if they find out? Please help; this job is very important to me.

Hi Sansim,
Just give them a fake one. If you tell them the truth, they will fire you, and even if you provide false information, there is still a chance they will verify and terminate you. So, take a risk and give them the fake details. In this selfish world, no one will listen to your truth. Just go ahead.

Hi Shiraj,
Hi Samsim, yes, you can give the fake certificates. Don't worry; nothing will happen. But don't give any personal information to them (i.e., home address, phone number, etc.). So be brave and do whatever you want. Don't bother about others, and remember one thing, you should not leak this information to any of your friends or others.
Okay, all the best.

Dear,
First thing is that you made a mistake by telling them that you are gratis. However, there is a solution for the said matter: you can confess your mistake and tell the truth to your management.
Second thing is that you can continue your studies from where you left off. Remember, nothing is impossible in the world.
If you consider the suggestions of others, I wish you good luck.

We are faced with such situations many times in life. I would suggest you stick to the correct path, tell them the truth. Maybe you won't get this job, but you won't be living a lie, and eventually things will work out for the better. Be strong and do the right thing - that is my suggestion.
Post your resume on the job boards and on our site - something may work out.

Hi Sansim,
As a HR professional, I always wonder whether there is any relation between educational qualification and successful job performance. The way a task is performed has changed, but not the mindset of HR people and companies.
In your case, patient coordination requires a lot of empathy. So, if you ask me, the organization must test this competency among the candidates. Now, I fail to understand how a graduate (with no empathy) can be a better bet than an undergraduate (with tons of empathy). This is the problem with almost all organizations. They are simply trying to follow the grand old tradition.
So, ask yourself only one question: "whether I possess empathy or not." If the answer to this question is yes, then go on and submit a fake certificate. But if you do not possess empathy, then do not submit a fake certificate as you will never succeed in this job.
As far as the legal side is concerned, the employer can terminate your services at any time if he finds out about your fake certificate. You cannot challenge.
My advice is to perform your tasks so well that even if your employer finds out about your fake certificate, he will think twice before dismissing you.
Last but not least, never post this type of question in a popular forum like citehr. Who knows, your employer may be reading this!
All the best.

Dear Sansim,
It is very unfortunate whatever has happened in your life. Don't get disturbed. You can go ahead and join, but meanwhile, there are universities that allow you to sit for exams in one sitting and clear the graduation course, or a 3-year course, through distance education. Until you pass the degree exams, you have to maintain a low profile and try to manage. Please don't go Satyavadi's way and get humiliated.
Suggestion providers - Please understand her present condition (no mother, father remarried, no husband), what else can she do?
All the best, go ahead with full confidence.

Dear Sansim,
It's very easy to lie and submit a fake certificate, but think about your future. You will not have peace of mind. Whenever you get a call from management, automatically you will feel scared... i.e. who...did they know that I have submitted a fake certificate? After all, you cannot have a satisfying job, so it's better if you tell them the truth and be confident while doing so. Make them feel that even though you are not a graduate, you are fit for the job.
Good luck, yaar.

Hi, you are an Indian woman. Don't worry about these petty problems here. No one has enough time to spend their useful time on your certificate verification. I also work in the HR team, and we never go for the verification of certificates. However, you should be aware that your performance should be very good. After that, there is no possibility of any doubt. Never share this information in the workplace. Join your organization, enjoy your job confidently, and believe in the policy of "Don't worry when you see problems. Enjoy every problem as a new challenge."
Best of luck.
