At the top of your resume, you need to include the following information:

• Name
• Address
• Telephone Number(s)
• E-mail address

Mailing Address

If you have a temporary living situation, such as living on campus during a school year, you may want to include a temporary address as well as a more permanent address.

Telephone and E-mail

The telephone numbers and e-mail addresses are critical, so make sure they are correct and are numbers or addresses you check regularly.

The message you leave for a busy signal or voicemail needs to sound appropriate! Don't use a small child's voice on your voicemail. Also make sure your e-mail address is professional (don't use something like “HotBabe@hotmail.com”). This will NOT work for you!

The format of the contact information section can vary. Try different styles to see which one works best for you.
