project management PMP OR CAPM ?

HI EVERYONE.I AM A FRESH GRADUATE AT THE CROSSROADS OF TAKING EITHER OF THE 2 PMI EXAMINATIONS WHICH ARE:

*PROJECT MANAGEMENT PROFESSIONAL [PMP] WITH 3 YRS WORKING EXP PREREQUISITE
*CERTIFIED ASSOCIATE OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT[CAPM] FOR FRESHGRADUATE

BOTH EXAMS ARE OF THE SAME STANDARD BUT DEFINITELY,THE PMP IS MORE APPEALING TO AN EMPLOYER BUT AT THE SAME TIME,COULD BE A SET TRAP TO READ AN ASPIRING EMPLOYEES' HONESTY DURING AN INTERVIEW SINCE IT'S VERY WELL KNOWN THAT AS A FRESH GRADUATE,I'M NOT TENABLE TO HAVE APPLIED FOR PMP EXAMINATION EXCEPT I DOCTORED A PREVIOUS WORK EXPERIENCE TO THE PROJECT MGT BODY.
