Email Address Help

I read over resumes in my position at work to hire new people in my department. I have come to recognize the good resumes from the bad by different indicators one that I can't stand is one I have to mention to everyone so the 3 people who read this will be uplifted and enlightened.

If you really want a job with a professional company or you want an email taken seriously, your email address should not be close to any of the following:

naughtynana@yahoo.com =dirty old lady who probably smokes and has dial up.

loves2sleep@aol.com =probably will call in sick alot

summerof74@netzero.net =If you remember the summer of 1974....

alwyzlate@hotmail.c0m =Who cares what time I work?

puppylovr43@earthlink.net =Dogs are great... don't make it your life...

RyaJulie4kids@msn.com =Other commitments that won't take a back seat!

gilsgirl4ever@aol.com= The biggest problem here is that they still use AOL... tech fail!

bookwormer@hotmail.com = Reality is hard for this person to understand.


Here is what is acceptable.... study it!

(your first name, last name)@gmail.com

(first initial, last name)@gmail.com

(first initial.middle initial.last name)@gmail.com

Notice that I chose a gmail account for your email. Gmail is google mail... its huge right now and people who are more computer savy have them. It does tell me a lot about someone's computer experience when I see a gmail account.

I hope this is a lesson learned for everyone... if you have a problem with this... don't blame me... blame yourself for a poor email choice... repent and get a new email account!

(Note these email address examples are not real email addresses that I know of... if they are it by pure coincidence... if you have an email address like this... keep it personal not business!)
