Definition
State in which a professional, facing repeated rejection due to a resume that accurately but unfavorably represents their experience profile, restructures the resume to emphasize a legitimate but minor aspect of their background — such as managerial experience — while de-emphasizing a dominant aspect — such as technical design work — in order to qualify for positions in an adjacent role, without making affirmatively false statements, creating a threshold ethical question about whether selective emphasis constitutes deception or permissible self-presentation.
