I'll admit that I once asked a question like in an interview, but it was only because the candidate had said that he was an expert with the "tar" command. If you're going to be that full of poop on a CV, you should expect to be called up on it. [against my advice, the candidate was hired and was a disaster. I left the company shortly afterwards.]
That sounds like the guy who on his resume under "training" listed the 3-day course and certification he got in configuring Kentrox CSU/DSUs. The limited space one has on a resume to present oneself and that's what he chose to tell me. I understand that maybe his company made him do it but there are some things you just don't admit to.
