Title: Applying for jobs: what type of email?
Post by: Mo Z. Dizzle on July 15, 2009, 09:42:18 PM
What type of email should you use when applying for jobs?

I'm using my university one right; somebody told me that using it might make it seem like I'm still in school.
They told me to use a gmail account instead.


Any suggestions, comments, etc.?

fuck no. It doesn't matter what TYPE of email you have...use yahoo if you want.  The point is having a new professional email is definitely a must.  You need to make sure you cop a resume.

Make your own, just make it professional e.g  firstname.lastname@gmail.com
Don't make a BS one like beerchugger69 or something like that.

Stick with an element of your name. Try not to use a real shitty host either. Swear to God one of my pre-med homies submitted his application to med school with the e-mail "fukabeyoch@****.com".  :grumpy:

The 1st one. The shorter the better for one. My name is kinda long too and people tend to make errors with the email. You'd think they'd rely on copy n paste but I guess not lol

applying for a job by email?
that's new...

I help my dad with his job applications (cause he can only basically do the interview, he's bad to express it on paper) and he always had to actually print it and mail it.

ummmm this isnt something new. aint nobody trying to hire someone especially a nigga if his email is westcoastrydah@hotmail.com

or sensitiveTHUG4life@gmail.com...... just like the same reason niggas wont get hired if they come into the interview with sneakers and a button up thinking they fresh.

use msn or hotmail, it looks more friendly towards them.

gmail is used a lot as "use and burn" e-mails.
