Resume online: format, privacy

https://www.careeraddict.com/15068/things-you-need-to-know-before-distributing-your-cv-online

Good advice here about how to format your resume for online views! Information about typefaces, formatting, and the like. Especially thoughtful comments on privacy:

  • Although you might include your exact street address in a resume in response to a specific job advertisement, you can reasonably omit some info. (There are too many creepy people out there in cyberspace).
  • Get a designated email account and phone number for job-search follow-up (and remember to check them often!) My favorite free "virtual" phone service: Google voice, which sends me an email as soon as I get a phone call. (Also screens out robo-call marketing.)
Thanks and a tip o' the Twitter hat to @CareerAddict!
