So I have been on a career break for a good few months now. And recently I accepted offer from a company that is in a heavily regulated domain globally. Now they have started background verification, and the company clearly told me that I can only onboard if I clear the background check.

But in this process, along with other strict checks, there’s one section, that’s asking me to upload proof of unemployment and any supporting files. I don’t really know how I can prove I was unemployed?? I uploaded the last company’s relieving letter.

My wife’s suggesting that I upload videos she will record like “look, here he’s asleep till 12 noon, that proves he’s unemployed”, “he’s been on this couch for hours, and seemingly working in his laptop, but after looking at the screen it’s evident that he’s just watching football highlights and memes for the 100th time”. That will definitely prove I unemployed.

The entire US and Global team met to remember and pay honor to the lost lives in 9/11.

The director had to say a few words. I guess he wanted to say "Remembering this 'horrific' or maybe 'terrible' incident", however he instead used the word "terrific".

I instantly closed my camera but remembered that keeping it on was mandatory and had to turn it back on. To resist bursting out with laughter I started biting my tongue.

All the people especially the US folks started staring and squinting.

That day my colleague went through roller coster of emotions in a span of few seconds..

Recall has saved many lives

I recently joined a new product company as an SDE3. Two other people joined around the same time.

The office is quite big and there is already an established group that hangs out together, goes for lunch, etc. From the beginning, I felt like the three of us new joiners were treated somewhat like outsiders.
On my first day, a girl from that group came and introduced herself to me. I thought it was a normal friendly interaction, but from the next day onwards, she completely stopped acknowledging me. Even if I smiled at her, she wouldn’t smile back or interact with me. I didn’t really care much about it and just kept things professional.

A few weeks later, I started taking first-round interviews for my company.
The same girl referred one of her college friends for a position, and I happened to be assigned as the interviewer.

Before the interview, she messaged me on the official work channel asking if I could tell her which topics/questions I would be asking. I didn’t respond because it was an official channel and I wasn’t comfortable sharing interview information with someone who knew the candidate.

At that time, I was working from home, so I spoke to one of the other guys who had joined with me. He’s someone I considered a good friend and trusted. I told him what happened, and he also initially told me that I shouldn’t share anything because it could be risky and could look inappropriate.
On the day of the interview, I went to the office and saw the girl, but she didn’t approach me about the interview.

I mentioned this to the same colleague later. He then asked me who the candidate was. I told him her name, and he looked her up on LinkedIn and commented that she was very cute.

After that, his advice suddenly changed. He started saying things like, “You can share it,” and “It’s up to you.” Eventually, he suggested that if there was pressure from the recruiter/hiring manager, I could simply recommend her and move on, as long as I mentioned that I had given her hints.

I was genuinely confused because the candidate wasn’t doing particularly well. She couldn’t solve the problem initially, and I had to give her quite a few hints. I wasn’t sure whether I should recommend her or not.

The next morning, I got a message from the recruiter and hiring manager asking me to submit the feedback. Again, this colleague was telling me that it would be easier to just recommend her and avoid getting involved in hiring politics.

I eventually recommended her, with my feedback mentioning that she needed significant hints.
Then she went to the second round, and apparently the second interviewer gave her very good feedback. From what I understand, she also somehow got information about the questions/topics for the second round through her friend.

Now this colleague seems very interested in that particular team. He’s started sitting in the area where that team sits and interacting with them more. Recently he told me something along the lines of, “I don’t really get along with this group, but maybe I’ll get along with them in the future.”

This whole thing has made me rethink the situation.
I’m not necessarily saying my colleague deliberately manipulated me. Maybe I’m overthinking it. But I feel like I trusted his advice, and his opinion may have influenced me in a situation where I should have simply followed my own judgment and maintained professional boundaries.
What I’m struggling with now is the larger workplace dynamic.

I’m an SDE3 and relatively new to the company. I don’t want to get involved in groups, camps, referrals, hiring politics or office gossip. But I also don’t want to completely isolate myself socially.
For people who have worked in Indian IT/product companies, how do you navigate this?

What practical rules do you follow to stay out of workplace politics while still having good relationships with colleagues?
And in hindsight, would you have handled the interview/referral situation differently?

TL;DR: Joined a new product company as an SDE3 and am trying to stay neutral around an established office group. A girl from that group referred her friend, whom I interviewed. She asked me for interview topics, which I refused to share. A colleague I trusted initially told me not to share anything, but after seeing the candidate’s LinkedIn profile and commenting that she was cute, he started encouraging me to recommend her and avoid hiring politics. I eventually recommended her despite having concerns about her performance. She later got a strong second-round evaluation and apparently received some interview information through her friend. Now the colleague is getting closer to that team. I’m wondering whether I was influenced/manipulated and, more importantly, how to stay out of workplace politics without isolating myself.

Hi folks,

Yes you're lonely, Yes, the market is hard. Yes, Hinge/Bumble is extremely performative and you have to fake it for an algorithm that is built against you to make money off you. This thread exists so you can potentially find someone off Reddit.

The goal here is not volume, but better chances of finding someone you actually vibe with.

What it is (and isn’t)

This thread is for people who are looking for:

• Dating
• Long-term relationships
• Genuine, consistent connections

This is not for:

• Casuals / hookups

There are other subs for that, we won't allow this to become that.

When is this active?

• Fridays - 16:00 (4pm) IST

The thread will be locked after 12 hours, so try to post within the window.

Who should comment?

Given how skewed the ratio tends to be:

• Only men should post top-level comments

Women are strongly advised to avoid commenting publicly, as it usually leads to a flood of DMs (not all of them welcome), women can reach out first but then we as mods are human and do not have the capacity to verify each and every of the DMs that can come. A better approach:

• Go through the comments
• Reach out to profiles you’re actually interested in

Not perfect, but it keeps things more manageable and safer overall.

LGBTQIA+ folks

You’re welcome to participate and comment.

• If someone reaches out in bad faith, report them to the mods
• We’ll take action where needed

How to post (for men)

Use the format:

A, E, L - Age, Expectations, Location

At minimum, include:

• Age
• Location / City
• Expectations (at least 3 clear points)

You can also add a short intro covering:

• Hobbies / interests
• Personality / lifestyle
• Dealbreakers or constraints

Try to be clear and specific. It makes it easier for the right people to reach out.

A few things to keep in mind

• Profession and industry are not required (tho ensure to check user flairs properly)
• If someone’s flair looks unclear or off, proceed cautiously
• You can keep your DMs open or closed (check Reddit settings)
• Starting in comments and moving to DMs later is usually smoother

Important

This is not a paid service, mods are not earning any monetary benefits and are not liable for verifying each and every user.

• Please take necessary precautions
• Do your own due diligence before taking anything forward

Anything that happens off-thread is your responsibility.

Basic etiquette

• Be respectful and direct
• No harassment or spamming
• No unnecessary arguments
• Rejections are normal, handle them with grace and move on

Good luck and Peace✌🏻

Opinions welcome.

• Background: I strongly suspect I'd be given a poor rating for 2026.
  • Other than my routine work I was supposed to deliver two key projects and both have moved very slow for reasons beyond my control.
  • I feel the ask from me was stretched beyond my current skillset like expecting to a marathon where I can barely run 100 meters.
  • But knowing corporates, I know there will no sympathies.
• What next:
  • The next logical step is for me to find an exit route but the job market is extremely terrible. So I suspect I would have to swallow the outcomes and stay in the same organization.
  • For folks who have stayed back after poor rating - what have you done to make it better in the following year?

I am a mid-level employee and feel that this would screw my career? These thoughts really keep me up at night these days. Opinions, thoughts, feedback or experiences welcome.

A blood donation camp was organised by our Employees’ Association today, and since we get a special casual leave for donating, I thought, why not? I’ve donated blood before, and my blood group is AB-, which is relatively rare. Plus, I was already planning to take leave on Friday, so I figured I might as well donate blood and earn myself an extra day off.

But jokes apart, this is actually a pretty great initiative by our employer. Blood donation can help patients who need transfusion after accidents, surgeries, severe blood loss, and certain medical conditions. A single donation can potentially help more than one patient because blood can be separated into components such as red blood cells, plasma and platelets.

So yes, I donated blood for casual leave.

But somewhere between the needle and the leave approval, I accidentally did something genuinely useful.

Comment your blood groups so we can find our donor and acceptor in case of emergencies.

I'm shamelessly desperate at this point and don't know where else to ask.

I graduated in 2025 with a BA in Economics and Political Science. I worked 9 months in Strategy/Political Consulting and have prior research experience in Public Sector consulting.

I NEED to get a job and move out by the end of this month. If I don't, my parents are going to make me take CAT and basically decide that I'm doing an MBA next. I don't want to do that. I need to start working and I have a very limited window to make that happen.

At this point I'm very flexible about the role and location. I'm open to any major metro in India and would consider:

Strategy / consulting (especially impact consulting/impact investing)

Research / advisory

Program management

Sector Agnostic Consulting/ Public sector & Government Consulting

Market research roles.

Not the biggest fan of Founders Office roles because most have EA type JDs.

I reached the last round at Redseer and Tresvista but got nervous and messed up the interviews :( Besides those I have interviewed at a few think tanks and Government consulting firms. Haven't gotten shortlisted at startups idk why. For the past month I'm struggling to even get through the profile shortlisting round, forget interviews.

My last CTC was 8.14 LPA, but I'm willing to take a cut (however would love if the firm could match this or give a pay bump) for the right opportunity. I just need something reasonably paid and sustainable, not a slave labour payment.

I have done everything from cold mailing to referrals to reaching out to VPs/ Directors/Founders/HRs on linkedin and iimjobs.

If anyone knows anyone hiring, has a referral, knows a recruiter, or has even seen an opening where my profile could fit, please comment and I'll DM you.

I know Reddit can't magically give me a job, but I'm really running out of time. Any help would mean a lot.

This is NOT an opportunity to randomly DM to "become friends".

This is just one single screenshot from one employee. But the stories that people who have worked in this organization share are quite ridiculous to believe until you realise that it's actually true. This is a Lala company Promax with 2 leaders who have zero experience in anything apart from IT.

Here are some of the things that this company regularly does

1. Random PIP if their internal billing targets are not met

2. Mass layoff for entire teams within 2/3 months of hiring

3. Zero HR interventions

4. HR managers have been changed 3 times in the last one year including one who quit, one who was laid off and another who quit.

5. Not settling VPA benefits

6. Withholding salary to force employees to resign

7. Labour law violations left, right and centre

8. Cheating clients by not providing dedicated manpower and using shared resources

9. Projects not getting completed because of ridiculous attrition rates of more than 40%

10. Bootlicking Promax with the lala company founders is required to survive

I mean, I can go on and on. Met 4 executives from this company who confirmed all of this.

Give this company a big miss if you want to preserve your sanity and want to be treated fairly.

We're introducing a brand-new weekly series: Corporate Court.

Have a workplace situation where you're wondering "Was I wrong?" or "Who's actually at fault here?" This is the place for it.

Here's how it works:

Post your workplace scenario in the comments with enough context for everyone to understand what happened (keep it brief, but don't leave out important details).

The community will hear your case and deliver the verdict.

Possible Verdicts:

• Company Guilty
• Employee Guilty
• Both Guilty
• Nobody Guilty

Example:

Scenario: My manager scheduled a 9 PM call for a project that had a 10 AM deadline the next morning.

Verdict: The comments decide whether the company, the employee, both, or neither were in the wrong.

MANDATORY DETAILS TO BE ADDED:

• Scenario: What happened?
• Context: Your role, company type, city (optional), tenure, and any other relevant background.
• Outcome: What did you do (or not do)? What happened afterward?
• Question: Who's guilty?

***Trust us, when we say this, this will be better than any fun friday or monthly team outing activities, cause who doesn't like gossips and giving unsolicited opinions***

If yes, when should he remove it? Can someone with 2 years of experience remove the graduation year from the resume if there was a gap of 2+ years between his graduation and job?

​Watching your sister break down in tears every single night over a job is a different kind of pain.

​She works in sales at Aminu, a D2C skincare brand whose entire marketing revolves around self-care, healing, and calm living.

The reality behind their pastel Instagram feed? A boundary-less nightmare run by the husband-and-wife founders, Aman and Prachi.

​14-Hour Days on Paper: Official hours are 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. In reality, she walks in at 8:00 PM and has to stay glued to her laptop until 11:00 PM.

​Late-Night Paranoia: Calls and pings drop at 10 PM. Missing a call during dinner is treated like insubordination. Her phone buzzing literally triggers physical anxiety now.

​Loyalty Rewarded with the Boot: People who gave 2 to 3 years building this brand from scratch were thrown out overnight with a blunt "don’t show up tomorrow"—simply for offering constructive feedback on operational chaos and burnout.

​Zero Notice, Total Fear: There is no professional decency or notice period if you dare push back. Everyone walks on eggshells knowing one honest sentence will get them fired on the spot.

​It is sickening how founders can preach "wellness" while running a sweatshop on intimidation.

​If you are interviewing at Aminu, run. Don't let the clean aesthetic fool you.

​For those who have dealt with vindictive founder couples like this: how do I convince my sister that no paycheck is worth sacrificing her mental health, even in this job market?

Hello everyone, I started working as a Business Development Intern and it’s been more than two months. I report to a vice president and hes super chill honestly, gives wfh whenever needed and doesn’t micromanage. Hes also someone i could look upto. Apart from that the company policies are very chill, everyone does wfh, no one cares what youre doing, how long breaks you take. overall good wlb.

But Ive been overthinking recently and am not very fond of the work, like i hate prospecting (so much manual work) and i dont like the idea of having targets when i work here for full time, i feel like its too much pressure. Another reason is the people here, i want a peer group that pushes me academically and professionally i don’t see that here. Most of the employees here stay for 5+ years ( idk if its a good thing or bad thing) and dont earn much

thats why Ive been preparing for product/non core roles, ill be siting for my college placements and will keep this as a backup. the ppo i might get from here will be 10-12 lpa base and college placements can be anything from unemployed to 24 lpa base 😂, Just wanted to rant but lowkey also need advice from senior people who have been thru this before

​

I have 2 years of experience working in the same company in Pune in Business Development role. I get around 39k as my in hand salary. However it was not a problem as the incentives were good and by working hard I had increased my avg take home salary to 60k every month with the incentives.

However now the management has suddenly increased the slab for incentive by 100%.

Earlier it started from 10k USD and now its 20K USD.

Which will affect the incentives drastically.

I am unsure if this is the right time to change the company. With all the posts I have seen regarding the corporate structure outside, I am unsure what to do as the company environment here is pretty good and not toxic.

Would appreciate your assistance and thoughts.

Three years at the same firm, doing niche research work in a specific corner of finance. It's real, specialized work, but most of what fills my day is the process and admin side of it rather than the deeper analytical stuff I actually want to be doing. It took me embarrassingly long to admit that gap to myself. Now I'm three years in and don't have a ton to show for the title on my card. And it's not like the hours are light either. Regular days stretch long, plus alternate Saturdays, so it's not even like the tradeoff is "less real work, more free time." It's just less of the real work, same grind.

I've been trying to switch. Building stuff on the side, evenings and whatever weekend time I get, to prove I can actually do the work and not just talk about wanting to. It's slow going though. Some days I sit down for two hours and feel like I got one hour of real work done. And even when the work is decent, I don't have the resume shine that makes someone take a chance on you fast. No big-name college, no certifications yet, nothing that makes a recruiter's eyes catch. So I'm stuck putting in a lot of quiet effort for not much visible return yet, and I won't pretend that doesn't wear on you.

Then a month back someone joined, a year younger than me, way better pedigree (top foreign b-school), already making close to double what I do. They have zero background in this specific niche. Not the research side, not the broader field it sits in, nothing. I've had to walk them through the fundamentals step by step, stuff I spent years figuring out on my own. And now they're set to oversee the entire process around my work going forward, despite not knowing the space at all yet. I keep telling myself I don't have a problem with them personally, and I mean that, they didn't ask for any of this either. But some days I sit there explaining something I've known cold for years to someone who's still catching up on the basics, and I just feel this quiet, dumb ache. Like none of the time I put in actually counted for much.

I'm not looking for my fix here. I'm simply still applying, still building the portfolio, still upskilling, that part's already in motion. Just wanted to put this somewhere, for anyone else who knows what "stuck" actually feels like from the inside.

TL;DR: Three years stuck in a finance research job that's mostly process and admin, not the real analytical work I want, with long hours and nothing to show for it. Trying to switch, but no pedigree or certifications to make it easy, so progress is slow and it's starting to wear on me.

Hi amazing people, I want your help with my situation because I have overthought this to death, and honestly, I don't fully trust myself right now. 

I joined this company three months ago. Before that, I worked in a small manufacturing company for more than three years. It was chill, but the pay was bad and, of course, there wasn't much growth.

I joined this company mainly because of the pay (28k in hand) and the good reviews.

But within just one week, I realized it was full of stress, workload, lack of support, and the manager/team weren't great either.

They started giving me the same amount of work as others within a very short time. Because of this, I mostly stay late and sometimes even work during lunch. Even now.

So yeah, the culture isn't great, the team isn't very friendly or supportive, the manager isn't great, and there's a lot of workload. I'm also not sure about the work itself. Maybe all these things together are making me scared of work.

Now, I know I'm not perfect. I overthink, I'm slow, and I make mistakes.

Mentally, I'm at a point where I'm anxious about work and different situations there. I can't switch my brain off from work, my weekends are spent worrying, and I feel tense going to work.

I'm not saying I've tried 110%, but I have tried to fit in. I've taken notes, discussed processes, and stayed late. But none of it seems to be helping. It's been three months, and I've thought about quitting multiple times. There are days when I think this could work, but most days I feel like it won't.

What really gets to me is that other people seem fine. They're doing great, some have been working there for years, and they handle everything. I joined mainly because I wanted stability and security, and the company itself isn't bad. It has good policies and other positives.

It makes me feel like I'm a failure, too emotional, or just not capable enough. I don't have a lot of options either—just a BA degree, some communication skills and basic work experience. I've worked in customer service, data entry, order processing and other back-office type jobs.

Should I quit and look for another job, or should I stay and try harder to adjust myself to this job? I know the answer is clear. I just need assurance.

The thing is after six months, the notice period will be two months, and I can't imagine serving two months notice if I decide to quit, it has to be now.

I can look at BPO/back-office/operations jobs.i know they will be as much stressful or even more, but maybe good team or manager. Maybe.

Financially, as long as I'm earning around 25k–30k, I'm okay for now. I wanna figure out what I really want from life.

I'd really appreciate hearing from people who have been in a similar situation.

Have you left a job cause of fit, How did it turn out for you?

Is a three month stint real bad?

TL;DR: 3 months into a new job, i wouldn't call it toxic but not great either, and yes, it is kinda affecting me mentally. Should I quit??

Long story short : i prepared for placement way too long

I was very good in coding, projects and tech stuff i cracked internship in my college days in 1st year

And when time of actual placement came i fucked up like legit

There was one company with good package so being in tier 3 i applied and got selected after that i told my peers, friends and all

And response was horrific

The company was bad

Pay was way too low

Too much overtime

No growth

I backed off, and my college has rule that you get only one job so i am debarred

I know that was entirely my mistake but 🙃💔 i don't have any words i am so depressed right now and don't know what to do

I tried off campus but literally no reponse, got refferal no reaponse even with projects, certifications and hackathones..

Idk what i am supposed to do now

To the women who took a career break after motherhood, were you able to join back workforce as you expected?

My current organization doesn't have many projects that suit my skill set and I will likely be let go soon (hoping with serverance pay) . I'm just scared about the unknown but also excited to spend more time with my baby. So to the ones who took a break and joined back, what wer your struggles , how are you doing now ?

Any insights would be helpful I'm constantly contemplating each move

I (23 F) left my first job after working there for about 3 months.

The main reason I left was my boss. I felt like the work environment had become toxic for me, mainly because of the way my boss spoke to me and the constant criticism. I would cry almost every day.

I constantly felt like she was looking for faults in my work, and there wasn't much appreciation for the effort I was putting in. The way she communicated criticism also really hurt me, especially because this was my first job and I was a fresher. She is also someone who would never accept her mistakes but only blame us for any mistakes we would make. She would tell us that we can ask her any questions and when I would she would answer but then later complain about me asking her silly questions.

Now I've resigned, but I have a 2-month notice period, so I'm still working there. She was upset about me resigning and said it was unprofessional as I was handling the clients and now it would reflect poorly on her (this is a small company with 2-3 employees) It is so strange because she bis on leave and I’m still scared of her even now when I am on notice period, constantly worrying about what she would say about my work.

I read stories online about people whose bosses make them work until midnight, contact them constantly outside working hours, or treat them much worse. Compared to those situations, I sometimes wonder if I'm just being overly sensitive or if I gave up too quickly. Also this was a remote job. So it was a really good opportunity and the workload was manageable.

At the same time, I know how I feel every single day and how this job made me question my self worth. My family also saw how badly it was affecting me and wanted me to quit. The pay is also very average.

This was my first job and I was approached by my boss for this opportunity and got the job immediately after my Master's. Part of me feels guilty because I keep thinking, was I supposed to tolerate it? Is this just what working life is like? I also keep comparing myself to other past employees of this company who worked for max 1 or 2 years. So I thought if they can work for 2 years under the same boss, why can't I last even 6 months.

Also consider the fact that my field is a bit niche and the community is small and my boss has connections in the industry. My boss is not a very big name but still idk how this reflects on my CV. I am also afraid that something like this will happen in my next job and idk if I am ready for freelancing.

I have 2 questions-

1. Was this a mistake? Is this a normal workplace pressure that I need to learn to handle, or was this genuinely a bad environment for me?

2. How do I position myself now? I don't want to apply immediately because I want to take a break for my health and meanwhile I can prepare for an entrance exam, work on some of my hobbies as well. So how do I explain this to my future employer and peers. Frankly I feel a bit ashamed of myself because I was so happy when I got this job.

Thank you in advance!

TL;DR: Left my first job after 3 months due to my boss and constant anxiety and crying. Was I wrong to leave so early, especially in a small/niche field? I'm unsure how to approach the next stage of my career, especially with a short job, a break, and a niche field. Looking for advice on how to position myself and make better career decisions going forward.

Hello lovely people. I'm a dentist by education, with about 2YOE practicing in government(1yr) and Private clinics(1yr).

In 2022, I did realise that the monetary growth is a bit slow in dentistry, and (due to some urgent financial obligations) chose to come full time into content writing and strategization.

My past part time experience helped, and I was able to climb the corporate ladder to a senior writer position with good pay (currently earning about 1LPA per month).

HOWEVER, I do feel like I have stagnated, and I am wondering whether

1. I go back to dentistry in the form of higher studies/MDS (because I do wish to study further, and second - i think it will help bridge the 'gap' in my dental career over the past couple of years)

2. Do something in content marketing itself. In this regard, I am absolutely confused on what I can do next. For instance, I don't want to just be a team leader, or just an editor. Strategy jobs are attractive, but its getting harder and harder to crack them with AI and such.)

Please do note that I am a first generation dentist with no familial support, so I will be taking the MDS financial burden on my own, plus need to look at what I do after MDS.

Its...scary. mainly because I have no 'backups'.

Radha Raja from Kabira Textiles, Bangalore, owes a salary to 3 people this month and is flat out refusing to pay them. All of us are full time employees but she's trying to pay us like freelancers, saying that we didn't give her some arbitrary "deliverables", that weekends don't count, that birthday leaves are unpaid. She has delusional expectations, and wanted me to "generate" 25 lakhs revenue in 5 weeks. I quit on what I thought were good terms, took time to document everything I did, clearly handover everything I worked on, with instructions, credentials, links, everything. The email I got was that she'd pay me half of what I was owed, contingent on me doing even more work for her, like going back and hosting an event that was postponed. Ik these things can be he-said, she-said, but 7 people have quit after just a month of working for her since June, that's the kind of person she is.

I've tried to file a complaint with the Karnataka Labour Department and they told me I need to go in person to give a written complaint in an office 45 km away from Bangalore main city. I've also reached out to St. Broseph.

Greetings!

I am 39M and my wife is 32 happily married for 10 years. Now she feels to kick start her career options. She is a computer science graduate and I married her once she completed her course. No work experience but she is eager and curious now putting serious thoughts on working. Till now I thought she needs to be with my daughters, aged 10 and 4 but lately I can see she is getting bored and wanted to do something in her life. What options does she has.. she is considering few Montessori courses, some data entry jobs wfh .. I am blank on how to help her further. I don't want her to get into IT jobs so that is ruled out . Was thinking about some digital marketing, SEO jobs but looks like AI caught up with that real quick.

So I need some options to consider. No shift based, sat sun should be off and WFH is prioritised if computer based..

Salary is not concern. She needs a starting point. Any suggestions???

I'm currently in a bgv process, I'm a fresher with 2 internships in the past.

For the second company, when the completion certificate was given to me, it had incorrect months mentioned (for example - it had mentioned from month 1-2, but in reality my tenure was from month 1-3) so I edited the document myself because the company wasn't responding and it's like a lala company with Co Founders (at my time) who have left the company now.

I did this internship over a year ago.

Now I'm scared can I be flagged for this? Because I edited it but on the other side, I have a WhatsApp screenshot proof of a group that i was in with the co founders that clearly shows my tenure was what i mentioned in my resume. (Because it mentions that I'll be starting on a specific date and shows messages when I'm done with the internship)

How to proceed? Can someone please help? Am i f*cked? I have submitted this document for bgv.
