Unprofessional e-mail addresses can hurt your chances just as much as unprofessional e-mails. It is important to set something up that says something about your personal brand that is professional, not offensive and that will make someone look at your application.Business e-mails are a tool and that tool represents you.
So
- Separate your personal and professional e-mail addresses.
- Choose wisely
- Avoid sexual, politicaland religious references
- Avoid vulgar language
- Don't use your current work e-mail to apply for jobs
- No unnecessary use of cuteness
- Watchout for uppercase overkill
