Old Navy Interview - Problem?

Question

So I have an interview tomorrow at Old Navy. On the online application it asks if you are over 16, and I checked yes, and the guy who called me today to set the interview time also asked if I was 16. On impulse I said yes, because I assumed that I would be starting in September and it wouldn't really matter then anyways, because my birthday is September 7th. But, I might have to start immediatley. The problem is that I am 15, and I am turning 16 in exactly two weeks. I feel kind of bad/scared now, and I'm not sure if I should tell the guy tomorrow at the interview or not. Because, if I give him my social insurance number or whatever, he'll be able to find out right?

So basically my question is should I tell him tomorrow (and how much will it ruin my chances?), or should I continue to lie, and hope he/someone doesn't find out?

Answer 1

Just tell him that your birthday is in 2 weeks.  They might hire you, but might not let you start work until after your birthday.

Answer 2

Really? You have to tell him because if he finds out that you are lying on purpose, instead of an "accident"?? then they will immediately throw your application away.
