Would you include a cell phone number and email address on your resume? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

TVFactFan · 09-28-2005, 02:59 PM

I have been noticing a lot of mistakes on resumes that come inside the agency lately and I personally don;t think a email address needs to be on a resume. When has a employer ever emailed someone that they wanted ti interview? And I think a regular phone number should be on the resume. Anyone agree?

I agree about the email thing, but alot of people today don't have a LAN line, only cell phones b/c it's cheaper. That's what my sister does. Her and her husband each have a cell phone and that's it.

I don't put my email address on there, but my cell phone is on there... if i put my home phone number on there and was not there to answer the phone i'd never get the message

I HAVE to. That is, include my email address. I don't own a cell phone; my mom does. If I really must, I put down my mom's cell # and tell her to watch for messages. I don't have a land line- haven't owned one since 2003. Therefore, they would have better luck contacting me via email.

on my cell phone yes, but at home someone else would pick up, write down the message, and then i'd never get it... never know if they called me. If they left a message on the machine, 9 times out of 10 they would check it before me and I'd never get it. I don't even use the land line at my house anymore... i'm all cell phone baby!

Exactly. I would rather put too many ways to contact me, than not enough and miss the opportunity.

I put them both on my resume. I put the email because actually, a lot of the applications I've filled out ask for. I've gotten rejected by email before.

As for the phone, I put both numbers so that they can get ahold of me 24/7. Plus, some people don't have a home phone, just a cell.
