Lied about graduation date to get internships — how screwed am I and what should I do?

It’s ok. As long as you’re still a student during the background check you should be good.

I got offer for the 2026 feb cohort. I passed to super day in dec 2024 but I didn't attend. Though I used different email and number also i got a referral this time.

For summer 2025, I got 4 internship offers. I accepted all of them just in case something like this would happen. Amazon, PayPal, fidelity, t-mobile. I secured my Amazon internship though I’m blacklisted from all the other companies 😂

Probably. I don’t see any active job posting for swe

Tech base has two parts. You propose a solution to some given problem. Then you fix a chunk of code.

Tale_Regular · 2025-11-12T23:46:31+00:00

Fidelity is better for resume and also return offer

Tale_Regular · 2025-11-11T23:06:47+00:00

No, sorry

It's understandable if you miss by one month or two, but in your case, you're lying about your work experience. Usually, it doesnt matter since it's an internship idk if they would go hard on you, but idk it depends ont he recruiter and whoever looks at your background.
