Not asking if you make up the jobs or lie about what you do, but update the title to sound better towards what you’re applying for.
For example: im a client success specialist, but “client success consultant” sounds a lot better.
I’ve never done this but curious if it’s something people commonly do. Thanks all.

Oftentimes the company title actually just adds confusion. In summary, a title that is more industry appropriate and adds clarity to what you did is preferred to an esoteric sounding title the company actually gave you.
Resumes are marketing documents, not legal documents.
I also didn't write associate in front of one of the titles because frankly I didn't know that's what they called me in that role.
I had to go through this whole Appeals process for the background check.
