Easier said than done.
The access to sensitive information that my position provides requires that I undergo a polygraph periodically. My first, and most recent, was 3 weeks ago.
I am a very honest and analytical type who has no intention of doing anything to jeopardize national security, yet I had a difficult time during the 3+ hour procedure--which I somehow passed. A prostate check followed by a cold enema would have been about as pleasant, but more desirable since it would have been over in a matter of minutes.
My situation is but one of many that highlight potential flaws in using polygraph for employee screening purposes.
