Last year, I worked for six months at a company, but after leaving, they didn't provide any work experience documents. This led to me being denied admission to IIMs despite scoring a 97 percentile, as I applied as a fresher and performed poorly in the interview.
For this year's attempt, I fabricated 12 months of work experience from my uncle's company, showing a salary of less than ₹15,000. I have all the necessary documents, including a joining letter, a relieving letter, a work experience letter, and a salary certificate stating I was paid in cash.
Additionally, I'm currently employed in a private limited company in the same role as I claimed in the fake documents. What problems could I face, or will this be sufficient to secure admission and future employment?

Hi,
You have fabricated 12 months of work experience from your uncle's company and have the necessary fake documents to prove your 12 months of experience. You are concerned about the issues you might face in the future. What is important here is that during the future interview process, you should be able to justify your 12 months of real-time experience during verbal/written tests. The document verification process will be secondary; first and foremost, you should be able to satisfy the prospective employer about your strong knowledge in your core field, which is more critical. Certificates can be fabricated, but you will not be able to fabricate your performance during the interview process, especially in any tool or written test.

Hi,
What will matter in your future is that you have gained experience and that you are knowledgeable in your role. Experience is the basic qualification, and I think with that, you will be able to impact the firm you will be joining. Many have provided their papers and qualifications but do not know what to do in the real world. They only know the theoretical part of it but have no idea about how it's like to work in the field.

Dear friend,
Having done so much in your career path and being in the process of preparing yourself to face a few challenges, there is no need to regret in hindsight. You cannot undo the past, as you know. The only possibility could be to at least prepare a few things based on what you have stealthily included in your CV, in order to gain confidence in answering questions if they are posed about that non-existent service. Perhaps there won't be any questions asked about it if you are lucky. Don't worry too much; focus on your strengths.
