11、 a job search on the Internet.1.

The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be sh
12、ared. You may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information with others. You could be opening yourself up to unwanted calls from solicitors (推销员).When reviewing the sites privacy policy, youll be able to delete your resume just as easily as you po
13、sted it. You wont necessarily want your resume to remain out there on the Internet once you land a job.

14、er levels of privacy protection. Before posting your resume, carefully consider your job search objective and the level of risk you are willing to assume.CareerB, for example, offers three levels of privacy from which job seekers can choose. The first is standard posting. This option gives job seeke
15、rs who post their resumes the most visibility to the broadest employer audience possible.The second is anonymous (匿名的) posting. This allows job seekers the same visibility as those in the standard posting category without any of their contact information being displayed. Job seekers who wish to rema
16、in anonymous but want to share some other information may choose which pieces of contact information to display.The third is private posting. This option allows a job seeker to post a resume without having it searched by employers. Private posting allows job seekers to quickly and easily apply for j
17、obs that appear on CareerB without retyping their information.3.

Establish and email address for your search.Another way to protect y
20、our privacy while seeking employment online is to open up an email account specifically for your online job search. This will safeguard your existing email box in the event someone you dont know gets hold of your email address and shares it with others.Using an email address specifically for you job
