Hiring Mangers Read Your Email Address!! Almost everyone includes their Email address on their resumes these days and that is a good thing (I hope Martha Stewart has not patented that saying yet). The bad thing is that some individuals are using some Emails addresses that might reduce your chances of getting hired, if the Human Resources or hiring manager does not have a sense of humor. Examples of some of these email addresses are:
MillerLite
BoredMother
Sexyeyes
and my all time favorite,
Pudwackng101
I had not given too much thought to Email addresses until I submitted a resume to another third party recruiter and she called to tell me she was going to remove the Email address from the resume before submitting the resume to her client company. When she told me what the Email address was, I had to agree. Email addresses should present a sense of professionalism, or at very least be fairly neutral. Remember, the person you want to impress, and will decide if you get the job, is reading your Email address.
