Just talk about your current job and only answer if they ask about your last one. They want to move you up, they like your work. So no need to stress, it shouldn't matter.

I completely fabricated my work experience to get my high-paying post-graduate job. After graduation, plans fell through and I was unemployed, and this created a vicious cycle. Being unemployed led to me being a less desirable candidate which led to my unemployment lasting even longer which led to me being even more undesirable.

So eventually I just said "fuck it" and completely made up my credentials. And for the interview and when talking to them, I made sure to have a fleshed-out backstory and tales of experiences I've had lined up in my mind. And if they found out I was bullshitting, well, I didn't have anything to lose.

So I finally was able to get an in-person interview this way when before I was constantly getting rejected from everything. And I nailed the interview and got hired soon after. I was sweating bullets for a while though because there was some hold-up on their end, and at first it was because the background check found that I had no actual history. But it ended up just being incompetence on their end, and I was hired, and now I'm doing well.

tldr fabricate everything. you have nothing to lose and there's no other way to get ahead in modern times unless you're some chink who's being groomed since diapers to be the perfect little robot, or unless you're a jew with nepotistic connections.

"... perhaps the best work I've managed to get done was when my manager had me go through and audit our accounts to make sure our records were up to date. Everything was going well at first, but as I got into the older entries, the numbers started making less and less sense and there were many discrepancies. We had an over budgeted account of nearly 18 thousand dollars that was culminated over at least a 6 month period of entry errors. It was painstaking work but I managed to cross reference every entry with receipts and other resources to rebudget the account. Once the work was complete, I reported to my manager what had happened, to which she put in an award recommendation to the owner. A week later, the owner had taken me out to lunch and explained how much money I had saved him in back taxes and overhead. He then gave me a watch, the very same one im wearing now, as a token of appreciation, and let me take a paid day off work."
