Protecting Your Identity Online

Unfortunately when job hunting on the internet today you need to take a few precautions. According to the FBI identity theft is the number one internet crime. The information contained in resumes provides a very good starting point for identity thieves.

Also employers have been known to search resume posting boards looking for current employees. With that said the internet is a great place to search for a job you just need to take a few common sense precautions.

Minimize your contact information; this makes it harder to steal your identity and harder for your employer to discover your job search.

Start by removing the normal contact information from your resume:

Your Name
Your address
Your Phone Number
Business E-mail address (Not a good idea anyways)
Your Personal E-mail address

We stongly recommend to always use an alternative email address such as hotmail.com or Yahoo.com in a job search.
