Drop that recruiting firm like a bad habit. Write up your experiences on Glassdoor.

Subject: What would you do?
I have been corresponding with a recruiting firm about a possible job as a SharePoint administrator, and they asked me to change my resume. The job description includes some things that I have never worked with, such as Infopath. The recruiter asked me to edit my resume to show experience with about half a dozen things I've never done, to match things in the description, and email him that new version.
I won't say what I've done or not done - I'm interested in your thoughts about it.
