I??m in a HUGE dilemma. Firstly please NO moral filled replies, I know I screwed up. Basically I have been hired by a Big Five firm for several months now, but I don??t start until September. They??ve done all the background checks etc, and they have sent me their laptop. Problem is in a moment of absolute stupidity I sent in a photocopy of my transcript which had some grades ??changed??. Basically I raised by GPA from a B minus to a B plus. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I have to quit my current job in one month if I am to make the change because I have to go back to summer school to make up 6 courses (they know about this). Assuming I get all A??s in these 6 courses, hand in a real transcript which will included these grades when I start, do you think anything will happen? Has anyone heard of people getting charged for this? I love the job that??s been offered to me. Do you think they will notice? I have no idea what to do, I know I messed up but this is my dream job. Do I take the gamble or face the music now? ANY ADVICE? Thanks in advance. |

No big deal...you'll be fine.
If they bring it up, be honest and tell them how much you want to work for them and that you felt it would help secure the position. It would be very petty of them to fuss over such a minor thing.
