Well, in the entertainment industry resumes are padded routinely.

"performed extensively abroad/ worldwide" can mean worked on a cruise ship.

I know that's not the 'day job' resumes that you are looking at. However, they are out there and how do you define lying vs padding? And how do you confirm it, in my example?
