See, that's good to know (and I suppose ironic in the O'henry sense of the word).
The thing I've started to figure out is that there is almost no consensus on what people want to see on a resume (short of what they don't want to see).
Really? People lie about being Eagle Scouts? That says about as much about your character as lying about Mensa membership says about intelligence.
Presumably, that never happens on resumes with real career track records; if you have an established career, the upside to lying about being an Eagle Scout is relatively microscopic. I probably wouldn't "yea" an inexperienced candidate simply on account of their Boy Scout record. I have to wonder what these people are thinking.
