Everyone describes their experience in the light most favorable to them. That's different from inventing a past job entirely. If you get caught in the latter, then many (most?) companies will reject or fire you.

If you can't get a full-time job, do some contract work. Worst case, go on Upwork or whatever. If you charge low enough, then someone will take the bait. You can then describe that work in whatever misleadingly favorable terms you prefer.
