GPA Resume Rounding

If my current GPA is 3.64, but I bump it up to 3.7 on my resume, and later secure a job offer, would it be an issue if, by the time they verify my transcripts or conduct a background check, my GPA is a 3.66 (rounds up to 3.7)? Would they care that I said I had a 3.7 while having a 3.64 at the time of recruiting, despite having a 3.66 (rounded 3.7) at the time of background check? 99.99% sure I can raise my gpa up to a high 3.6 but not before the time of recruiting FT, so I'm just wondering if this is okay.
