Truthfulness & Accuracy Attestation
TEMPLATE — NOT LEGAL ADVICE. This document is a starting template. Have a licensed attorney review and adapt it before you rely on it. Nothing here is legal advice, and the statutes cited are for general awareness only.
By accepting this attestation, you confirm that you understand and agree to the following.
1. You are responsible for the truthfulness of your information
Every fact in your profile, résumé, cover letters, and job applications — your work history, employers, dates, titles, education, degrees, certifications, licenses, skills, security clearances, work authorization, and any other representation — must be true, accurate, and not misleading. You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and of any application you authorize this service to prepare or submit on your behalf.
2. This service does not fabricate
The tailoring engine is designed to reorganize, reword, and emphasize the information you provide — never to invent experience, credentials, employers, dates, or skills you do not actually have. Where a job requires something your profile does not support, the service is designed to identify that gap honestly rather than misrepresent your qualifications. You agree not to use the service to create false or misleading application materials.
3. Falsifying information can carry legal consequences
Knowingly providing false information on a job application, résumé, or related document can have serious consequences, which may include rescinded offers, termination of employment, and civil or criminal liability. Depending on the facts and jurisdiction, relevant laws may include, without limitation:
- Federal false statements — 18 U.S.C. § 1001 (materially false statements within the jurisdiction of the federal government, e.g. applications for federal employment or federally regulated roles).
- Federal fraud statutes — 18 U.S.C. § 1343 (wire fraud) and related provisions, where misrepresentations are made across interstate communications to obtain something of value.
- False claims regarding federal benefits or employment — various federal statutes and agency regulations governing employment forms and eligibility.
- State law — every U.S. state has its own laws that may apply, including statutes addressing fraud, forgery, falsification of records, and misrepresentation, as well as professional-licensing and unemployment-benefit rules. Penalties and elements vary by state.
- Immigration and work-authorization law — misrepresenting work authorization or falsifying employment-eligibility documents (e.g. Form I-9 attestations) can carry federal civil and criminal penalties.
The applicability of any law depends on the specific facts and jurisdiction. This list is not exhaustive and is not legal advice. If you have questions about your situation, consult a licensed attorney.

- You will not use this service to create or submit false or misleading application materials.
- You understand that falsifying application information may violate federal and state law and may result in the consequences described above.
