Professor didn’t like my ethics take

Taking an ethics class The question is: Is it ok to embellish on a resume to get a job? My response essentially is Yes its the employers job to make sure your qualified for the job, not yours. If an employer hires an underqualified candidate that's the employers problem not the employees. Fact is most important thing is taking care of your family, providing them with a roof over their head and if you have to embelish a little bit to do that, then so be it. Professor told me that's unethical cause you aren't being truthful to my employer. To which I said “My ethical responsibility to provide for my family, not my employer” Not quite like that, but pretty straight forward.
