I am an IT employee. I got registered with NASSCOM as it was mandatory in Company A, mentioning fake experience details. I stated 4 years as fake experience in NASSCOM. I worked for Company A for 20 months and left the company on good terms (revealing an experience letter).
After leaving Company A, I changed the NASSCOM details (fake company experience from 3.2 to 18 months) and also added the Post Graduation details. I then acquired 18 months of fake experience from the same consultancy.
I joined Company B with 18 months of fake experience from the same consultancy (again, I obtained new documents with the revised dates) and with 20 months of real-time experience. As NASSCOM verification was not mandatory for Company B, the verification was not conducted, and NASSCOM is still in an unverified state (all the details). I have been with this company for 2 years now.
I have now been selected by a reputed Company C, mentioning only the real-time experience of around 4 years in my resume. This resume contains all the correct information (nothing fake). The HR discussion is yet to take place. I want to eliminate this fake concept from my career and have only included details of Company A and Company B in the resume (around 4 years of real-time experience).
If I am caught during the background verification regarding my fake experience, how will HR react? I am confident in my technical skills. Will technical skills matter if caught with fake experience?
Please advise me on how to respond to secure the offer from Company C. I am determined to completely eliminate fake experience. Please suggest how I can proceed.

Given the situation, it's crucial to address the fake experience issue proactively to secure the offer from Company C. Here's a practical approach to handle this:
1. Be Honest and Transparent: During the HR discussion with Company C, acknowledge the past discrepancy in your work experience and explain the circumstances that led to it. Express your remorse and commitment to maintaining integrity moving forward.
2. Focus on Real Experience: Emphasize your genuine skills and accomplishments gained from your real-time experiences at Company A and Company B. Highlight your technical expertise and achievements that are based on your actual work.
3. Offer Solutions: Propose a solution to rectify the situation, such as providing a revised resume that accurately reflects your real work history. Assure the hiring team that you are fully committed to honesty and integrity in your professional endeavors.
