Did you realize that your email etiquettecan cost you a position before the hiring manager or recruiter even looks at your resume? In today’s team roundtable, we provide bad email etiquette examples…and some of them may surprise you.
We provide examples of candidate trips and falls during their qualification process, when they send thank-you notes, when accepting an offer, and when receiving a rejection.
We also discuss some not-so-obvious bad email etiquette examples. For example, using an email address that is too casual or informal can result in a 30% decrease in response rates. I once had a candidate with an email address that included his favorite libation. I swear I heard ice clinking into his glass every time I spoke with him. And sometimes I imagined he was slurring. We have also seen folks use terms like divaprincess in their email.
Don’t do that.
Maybe Ms. Divaprincess was a pleasure to work with and Mr. Guiness never drank during business hours. But trust me when I say future hiring managers will read too much into informal and “way too personal” email addresses.
Wouldn’t it be silly to lose an opportunity that you are qualified for just because you broke an unknown email etiquette rule? Tune into today’s roundtable to shore up your email etiquette skills and win that next position!
