Someone please advice me. I dont even know this is the correct forum to post my problem for help.

1. I graduated in 2006 with a degree in Computer Science.
2. Then, I could not get an entry level position so I joined a consulting firm so that my H1B could be processed.
3. I have only worked on one project ever since then and that was in 2008 for 4 months.
4. Before and after that I am only getting paid minimal amount to stay in status.

Scary Problems

1. My resume is manipulated in different areas (Java professional, Oracle professional) by my consulting firm.

2. Since I do not have real experience, I give interviews based on manipulated experience to fill the gap and therefore I do not do well in my interviews.

3. This pattern is repeating and I still dont have a job.

4. Its like I am a jack of all trades but master of none.

Questions.

1. What do I do to change this?
2. Who will hire me without experience i.e, if I honestly show my work experience for those few months and the rest blank.
3. This has been going on for 3 years and still I dont find a solution. This is affecting my other areas of life.

I am scared.
