I've not worked since 2010 and have unspent convictions as a S.O. My Job Centre work coach has referred me to another coach in a charity that helps ex-offenders find work. He has changed my CV to remove all dates, so it now appears that I am still working in the job I left in 2010 when I was imprisoned. Should I go along with this? At some point in an application process I would have to disclose that I haven't worked in 15 years, and why that is, so it seems misleading if not fraudulent to present myself as currently employed.
