Resume header: Your professional email address
Email Address: Part of your Professional Image One of the most common resume mistakes we see is with email addresses. Your email address is just one of the many elements that can contribute to your professional image. Certain e-mail addresses do not convey professionalism: Hotmama78@hotmail.com or Benchpress247@yahoo.com, for example. Aside from a professional-sounding address, for consistency of personal branding, I recommend an email address that closely matches the name on your resume. This kind of address has the added bonus of always being recognizable; it takes the guesswork out of a contact list. Common Email Mistakes Certain details that should not …

Resume header: What’s in a name?
Resume Headers As my favorite leading lady Julie Andrews once sung on screen, “Let’s start at the very beginning, a very good place to start.” In this series, however, we’re not going to learn how to sing (at least that’s not the plan). Instead, we’re going to learn how to write a resume, starting at the top and working our way down. The Alps and singing nuns might not be involved (again, not in the plans), but we do guarantee you this: if you follow these guidelines, step by step, your resume will convey professionalism and help you look like …

Working from home advice for job seekers and businesses
For job seekers Is work from home the new normal? I get a lot of questions these days about work from home (WFH) jobs. I also get a lot of job seekers that are only looking for remote options. Here’s my perspective: Depends on the job. If you are an office worker, it is more common for your job to be WFH, as opposed to two years ago. There are many jobs that are obviously excluded from WFH options, such as retail, hospitality, and essential roles. What’s less obvious is that lower-level jobs are often still asked to be …
