They never asked me for any of that but yes, those would be more difficult to fake and wouldn't be worth the effort. Most companies aren't going to bother with anything that can't be done through automated means but once in a while you'll find one that's ambitious like the one you're talking about.
It's funny to note that Georgia Tech had a football coach who lied about having an advanced degree and no one caught it. Not HR at the university, not the sports writers covering the football program, not the producers of the games. Not even when he won 'National Coach of the Year'. He got away with it for decades until he left to coach at Notre Dame and the lies were unraveled.
>The biography, which had remained more or less unchanged for two decades, stated that O'Leary had earned three letters in football at the University of New Hampshire, but when The (Manchester) Union Leader called The University of New Hampshire to research a feature story on him, the school informed the paper he had not even played in one game.
>He then admitted that he had not earned a master's degree from "NYU-Stony Brook University": this was a non-existent institution named after two separate schools over 50 miles apart. He had taken only two courses at Stony Brook, and never graduated. When this inaccuracy came to light, Notre Dame promptly forced O'Leary to resign.
