Is making up your own work experience a good idea?
I can’t get to the interview, they write me a refusal or they don’t look at my resume. In the experience column, it is indicated that there is a year of experience working on a startup (of course, there is no startup itself on the Internet). Do HR check the existence of such startups? Can I rivet a site telling that the project really existed and is frozen? How to get into an interview?

It’s definitely not worth lying about a non-existent experience. It’s better to make 2-3 educational projects (for yourself), upload them to the hosting and show them + write them correctly in your resume. And say so about experience - from work experience only educational projects, since freelancing does not interest me; I am looking for an office job in a team to develop, work on interesting projects, and everything in this vein. Yes, you may not immediately find a job for your skills, but there are firms that are looking for novice developers. Good luck!
This is a great idea, but this is better than it:
place an order on freelance: "come up with a work biography for me inexpensively."
Also, hrs look through your accounts on social networks, and if you repost any game there, they won’t take you. Social capital and social rating, take care of honor from a young age, so to speak.
Well, in essence - no one believes in a fictional experience, of course.
No, it’s okay to exaggerate when you have, say, 2 years, and you write 3 (but it’s better to write as it is, of course), but to lie frankly - immediately put an end to the interview, because it will be visible + can check. And to find without experience, of course, it is difficult, but it is quite possible.
> And another question: is it worth pointing out that there is a willingness to work for the cost of travel to work (5000-10000 tr) or will it scare off potential slave traders?
No, if a company is looking for a completely newcomer for such a salary, it will say about it, if it is looking for a big one, then they will not take a less experienced one out of economy, it is better not to indicate at all.
If there is no experience, then it is better not to. Enough to do a few of your projects.

Excellent. I always adjust my resume and work experience to the necessary one - I'm lying somewhere. somewhere I will hide the unseemly, somewhere I will increase the term of work or change the dates. I also change my age. Now, in the office where I work, everyone thinks that I am five years younger - the team is very young, the payments are on the air, and they simply would not have taken the old one. And so I work, make money, and they say that for "my age and experience" I am very strong. Lol.
If you want to live, know how to spin, especially in the context of bias, ageism and other charms. But here it is important that the skills are on the level. Otherwise, there is a risk of lying and sleeping on a request to tell more about the project or on a technical issue.
Regarding blacklists - bullshit. There will be enough work in our century in the world, not the CIS alone. He worked both in a Spanish startup and in a Belgian office of form slaps, so you definitely shouldn’t be afraid to offend or deceive a piggy near Moscow.
