With today's technology, it's all too easy for a job applicant to use someone else's identity, provide false references or lie about their previous experience. According to some studies, as many as 35% of people who have applied for a job have lied on their resume. When it comes to finding a nanny to look after your children for a significant part of their day, you want to be sure you find someone who is completely honest and trustworthy.
