Why Contact Info Matters on Your CV and Resume

You'd be surprised how many CVs and resumes get rejected due to unprofessional or incomplete contact information. Recruiters need to reach you quickly and easily—if your email looks unprofessional (coolboy123@email.com) or your phone number is formatted incorrectly, you might never get that interview call.

Common contact info mistakes that cost candidates jobs:

❌ Unprofessional email addresses (partygirl@, sweetie@, etc.)
❌ Missing country code for international applications
❌ Outdated or inactive email/phone numbers
❌ Full home address (privacy risk and unnecessary)
❌ Broken or unprofessional LinkedIn URLs
❌ Missing LinkedIn profile entirely (red flag in 2026)

This tool validates your contact information and flags any issues that could hurt your job search. It checks email professionalism, phone format, LinkedIn URL validity, and location format.
