During job interviews in the automotive industry, is it a good idea to say the truth?

Homme_affaireStephen Seckler, Legal Coach thinks so:

The “whole truth” can prevent an interviewer from drawing negative inferences. Sometimes the whole truth is best because it provides a good explanation for something that might be perceived as a negative. It also removes any speculation that you have some skeletons in your closet (e.g., the gap in your resume is because your mother was sick and you left work to care for her). I often joke with candidates that in the absence of contrary information, employers will presume that you were institutionalized during any breaks on your resume.
The general rule, though, is that you need to tell the truth and nothing but the truth, but you do not need to tell the “whole” truth —as long as you do not mislead.
