00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.184
Your resume should include
your name and how you can be

00:00:03.219 --> 00:00:05.565
reached, usually listing an
address and daytime

00:00:05.600 --> 00:00:06.520
phone number.

00:00:06.555 --> 00:00:09.168
Even if everyone calls you
by your nickname, use your

00:00:09.203 --> 00:00:10.467
given name on your resume.

00:00:10.502 --> 00:00:15.608
If you have two addresses,
such as a school address and

00:00:15.643 --> 00:00:17.615
a home address, you may
want to include both

00:00:17.650 --> 00:00:18.773
on your resume.

00:00:18.808 --> 00:00:22.657
Remember to include a phone
number, with area code, where

00:00:22.692 --> 00:00:24.809
you can be reached during
normal business hours for

00:00:24.844 --> 00:00:26.165
each address.

00:00:26.200 --> 00:00:27.701
If you are not home
during the day,

00:00:27.736 --> 00:00:30.922
and you cannot accept personal
phone calls at work, you could

00:00:30.957 --> 00:00:33.470
use a reliable friend's phone
number on your resume.

00:00:33.505 --> 00:00:36.289
Or, you may want to invest in
an answering machine if you do

00:00:36.324 --> 00:00:37.760
not already own one.

00:00:37.795 --> 00:00:41.900
For the duration of your job
search, record a professional

00:00:41.935 --> 00:00:44.500
outgoing message on your
machine, such as

00:00:44.535 --> 00:00:46.540
"You've reached the
Anderson residence.

00:00:46.575 --> 00:00:49.191
There is no available to take
your call at the moment,

00:00:49.226 --> 00:00:52.418
so please leave your name,
phone number, a brief message

00:00:52.453 --> 00:00:54.998
and the date and time you
called after you hear the beep.

00:00:55.033 --> 00:00:55.808
Thank you. "

00:00:55.843 --> 00:00:58.719
Avoid cute messages
at all costs.
