I'm confused--whose integrity is being questioned? What is dishonest about
holding back unnecessary information at an interview? What IS dishonest is
claiming that you've worked with a DTP that you haven't worked with, or
created a particular document from scratch when you've only edited
SME-provided information. But I don't see how NOT saying you're being
outsourced shows a lack of integrity when you can honestly say something
else that puts you in a better light.

Yes, because then you have the opportunity to turn it down if you
determine that you don't want to work there, for whatever reason.
