it really depends on what your definition of 'is' is... what i mean by that is, you don't need to lie to sell yourself, but that you should try to put the most positive spin on your situation, so saying that you are self employed (e.g. you contract your services), and maybe admitting that business has been slow, due to the economy, is not a lie, even if you haven't had a client for over a year, you just want to answer the questions more like you are a marketer or a politician.
put a positive spin on the situation, by not being specific on areas that are weaknesses, and emphasizing your strengths.
it's not a science, more of an art, but if it gets you hired, and you are a good contributer once you are on the team, no one is gonna go digging into your past, 9 times outa 10.
there are no guarantees, but hey, life is about survival where risks are inherent, not guarantees.
