Why didn't that employer call?

The two things that we often neglect to pay attention to when applying for jobs is our E-Mail address and the outgoing message on our cell phone. Be mindful of what employers will assume about you based on those things. If your outgoing message on the phone has music with curse words and inappropriate language, you my want to consider switching to the default outgoing message. And if your email address is something like phatgurlzrock69@email.com or bigballover69@email.com, please know it is time for something that is more workplace appropriate. When employers are going through hundreds of potential applicants don't let your email address or outgoing message prevent you from advancing to the next round. Think smart, make appropriate changes, and land that next opportunity!
