Ideas from a Head Hunter
Get a real professional Email Address
Category: General
When I was in a position where I was looking at other people's resumes often, one thing that always stood out to me was candidates' email addresses. Did they want to be taken seriously, or were they clueless that cutesy email addresses aren't acceptable on professional resumes? Perhaps it seems a little nit-picky, but providing a straightforward email address with your name is really the best way to go when you're applying for jobs. Otherwise, your fambulosjack1234@gmail.com will likely come off as immature and show that your attention to detail is lacking.
