Ask him why. If he wants the general format, give it to him. If he wants the wording on the tasks both of you do, give it to him and ask him for his version to see if he comes up with a better version. You don't have to give him your entire resume. At my work, we used to swap ideas about how to best describe our job's duties. It was a win-win for everyone.

I have a coworker whose resume is full of lies. Our manager requested it after other teammates complained to him.

If I were a CEO and my employees were putting downplayed accomplishments on their LinkedIn, I'd be pleased too. Headhunters will pass them by.

They are frequently requested under FOIA. Your SF50 also and your salary. No privacy for feds.
Your salary is public (for most jobs) and no need to foia it. But wouldn't a resume be covered by exemption 6?
The salary is public because it was released under FOIA to those websites...

No. We release resumes in full. I'd only redact personal addresses or phone numbers. I get SO many disgruntled coworkers FOIAing their coworker's resumes.

Happened to my brother once. My brother found out later that he had literally copied word-for-word much of my brother's resume (they served in a similar function, but my brother has more technical skill and experience).

I allowed a colleague to take a look at my extended cover letter (2-3 pages typical for these jobs). She later copied it almost to the word, plugging in her info it was a narrative letter, untraditional but strong. It's a tiny niche field and we will no doubt be applying for the same jobs so it would look like one if us was not truthful....

Sounds more like you are lying on your resume and this person could recognize the lie.

I agree with you, OP. Would love to know who you hired to format your resume, if you're up for sharing that here.
