Make Sure Your Email Address is Appropriate

Record an Appropriate Outgoing Voicemail Message

This tip is crucial to presenting a positive first impression to whomever is thinking about hiring you. This is not the time for a prospective employer to be greeted with a silly, funny message.

Your greeting should be clear and to the point. Make sure the message includes your first and last name, along with your phone number. Be sure you communicate their message will be quckly returned. Don't forget to say "thank you."

Check Your Social Networking Profile for Inappropriate Posts and Media

You need to be aware of the fact that many employers use profiles posted at social networks to gain valuable background information on job candidates. As such, you should conduct a thorough review of your profile and remove any information, comments, photos or videos which may present you in a negative light.

Things such as poor spelling and grammar, negative comments about gender, race and religion can be red flags to emloyers. Anything you believe has the potential for ruining your chances for getting the job should be removed. Remember the saying, "when in doubt, throw it out!"
