I agree, the bullshit eventually get's filtered out.
I'm interning at a big company and whenever my managers go over resumes and interview people, the only thing they talk about afterward are the funny ways they get bullshitted.
Some people put really ridiculous stuff on their resume, but any smart manager will see right through it or find out during an interview.
From my perspective, which is built upon how my managers react to resumes and interviews, it seems like it's more important to put as many high level things (that you are competent in) on your resume as possible, and only briefly mention lower level work (if you're able to do higher level work, it is implied that you can do lower level work too).
But yeah, bottom line, I really thing bullshit doesn't get unqualified people too far.
