CV Contact Details

[Clippy]

How many of you use alternative contact details on your CV?

i.e. Use a different email address and/or mobile number to your 'regular' ones just for your CV.

Those of you that do, do you have any practical issues with this approach?

[RichardCranium]

Huh? Different email names?

I have different DOMAIN names!

I have a domain for Mrs C & I to use ( <name>@MrAndMrsC.co.uk ) for social purposes; all commercial LtdCo stuff goes to one of the many <address>@MyLtd.Co.uk addresses.

Then there are the different domain names I use for other purposes, some disposable, some owned.

I have 2 mobile phones and loads of email addresses for various things.

So yes I do have a different mobile phone for business and a different email address.

[Mustang]

I have 2 phones: one business and one personal. I have then set up various emails on MyCo domain. The one on my CV is enquiries@MyCo domain.

No major problems experienced.

Nah. Cant be arsed with that malarky!

[Mr.Whippy]

I have one of those free personal 07xxxx numbers. I've set it up to redirect all calls straight to voicemail, which then emails me a .wav file of the message. So I can keep my regular number off my CV and screen all the calls.

I ditch the number when I'm not looking for work and then get new one when I am looking.

With the emails it just means it's easier to deal with them and search them.

Both provide voicemail to .wav email... You can just use it to redirect to your normal mobile/landline, I just prefer to avoid talking to agents and having them knowing my real number unless absolutely necessary
