Hard to fake: Competence (best KPI: projects), Follow-through (KPI: long-term projects), People skills (unless high-functioning sociopath) Easy to fake: Superficial multi-discplinary intelligence (read lots of trivia), Confidence (pretend you're acting)

Lots of answers here are off the mark - its a question about signalling, "actually doing things" is the opposite of a signal. Ill say that class background is harder than most people think, as its a constantly changing signal. Hard to keep up unless its who you really are.
