I wasn't aware blog authors could see my actual address when I leave comments, thanks for the heads up. I initially created the e-mail address for job hunting. When I wasn't doing much of that, and I started blogging, I just used it. I didn't ever think anyone would ever read my blog!<br /><br />Jen - I appreciate the compliment :)<br /><br />Daisy - That's kind of scary that you had a wrong listing :s Definitely something I'll watch for in the future!<br /><br />Kim - No problem!Cassiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06637374526994566873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509874543934071072.post-81444683298817073192011-05-26T14:36:05.486-06:002011-05-26T14:36:05.486-06:00I google myself once every few months!

You've commented on mine, and your gmail address pops up. So I know your last name - MWAHAHA. <br /><br />Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. I didn't know this until I got gmail, and when I first started blogging I was using my personal email until I made a gmail account with my blog name.Daisyhttp://add-vodka.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509874543934071072.post-39244613938055580712011-05-26T13:14:32.444-06:002011-05-26T13:14:32.444-06:00In my job search class we all had to google oursel...In my job search class we all had to google ourselves. I found some things that shouldn't be attached to my name - a friends business listed under mine, for example. <br /><br />Be careful - recruiters look ALL THE TIME. Your facebook, twitter, blog, even your school websites. Even if all the info they find is good - less information is better, so they don't form an opinion on you before you have a chance to dazzle them in your interview.Daisyhttp://add-vodka.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509874543934071072.post-58630993383004364202011-05-26T11:16:01.000-06:002011-05-26T11:16:01.000-06:00This is funny because I'm a Recruiter and goog...This is funny because I'm a Recruiter and google pretty much every candidate I have. I want to know more about what they do and if they have a detailed profile, that's even better.<br /><br />The Facebook links are my favorite... very entertaining. <br /><br />If anything, I'd think that your online profile would entice a Recruiter. It would definitely show off your writing skills :)Jen @ SheBloggshttp://www.shebloggs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509874543934071072.post-31272549970149375832011-05-26T11:07:28.288-06:002011-05-26T11:07:28.288-06:00Another way people can find you - when you leave c...Another way people can find you - when you leave comments on other blogs, your gmail address comes up in the admin bar. <br /><br />So, I guess what I'm saying is, I might have googled you. Does that make me a stalker?? No bad intentions here, just curious!<br /><br />I use a "blog" email address that doesn't use my full name for that reason.Obsessive Compulsive Danielahttp://obsessivecompulsivedaniela.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509874543934071072.post-20483601861475188392011-05-26T10:59:07.306-06:002011-05-26T10:59:07.306-06:00I think recruiters will be pleasantly surprised wi...I think recruiters will be pleasantly surprised with your financial dilligence. Any company is focused on their finances. Although your job may not be directly related at least they know if you got promoted into management you would have a good grip on their finances. I googled myself and nothing comes up... lame. My friend was last in a 10km once and now that's the only thing that comes up when you google her... not great for recruitement.banclothinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18346705403696187772noreply@blogger.com
