After reading an inspiring story in the mid 90s about someone that collected rejection letters for jobs they weren't qualified for (CEO of a national rail carrier etc), I turned to a life built on a similar idea. I applied for jobs I thought I could do, using mostly made-up resume information. If I was scheduled for an interview I would study like mad every waking hour until the interview. My career was absurdly successful by any measure and I retired rich 30 years early.

The resume is the dumbest blocker in our society. If you can do the job, just write that on your resume along with whatever else you think they want to see.
