I think Indians know how to treat Americans. I graduated from a University in USA, and I am a pretty good student too. But I had no real experience before. I applied to a lot of positions that I could do well. 80% of times, I wasn't even responed back. I had a few interviews in 3 months. And none of them resulted in a job. I eventually decided to do what the Indians do. I faked my resume, put 5 years of experience with whatever skill they are looking for. And I got hired within a couple of weeks. So I went in to this position which demanded 7 years of experience, and had no experience at all in reality. The first three months were difficult, more so due to communication skills than technical. After I started feeling comfortable with the environment, I started doing very well at the job. Now one and a half years later, they think I am a genius. But I am in fact the same nervous guy with no experience. And I haven't changed much technically. Believe me, 90% of americans at work are dumb. In the meetings, even if he knows just 30% of what you know, he will make himself look like a guru asking all sort of questions. The rest 10% are real hardworking and dedicated and are the ones who rule the world. If you want to get recognized in USA, just fake it.

exactly, I am still a student so I can't speak from Howard's perspective. But it looks like people who've "fallen victim" to the Indian consultancies have mostly their communication skills to blame. I mean if you can't even write a grammatically coherent sentence, who's gonna give you a job?. Most people fret about their GPA's, but I guess when it comes to landing a job, communication skills are just as important, especially when you pad your resume. If you can't back up your resume with an intelligent speech, they'll catch you for sure. Remember, to be a successful person, you should also reflect a successful persona, and a lot of it can derive from impeccable communication skills. Improve your English people.

How can you fake a resume? Don't they cross check your reference to your previous mentioned employer/s? If they don't then its their problem. Isn't it?

Howard nice to hear that from you. Same thing with me man. I had just 20 hard days. Now, I'm enjoying my work. I'm doing a job where most of my friends over here have at least of 15 years of experience. I'm getting an experience of life time where no studies can take you. This is how it is. Be strong at your heart and believe in yourself . By the way Dave, you're right about Victims. I saw same with some of the guys. They had really hard time communicating in an interview. Guys, by the way if you are hard working and good in communicating you are good for any position.
