Build a Contact Block That Doesn't Leak Bad Signals

Small details, big trust implications.

Your contact block is the first thing read. Polish it.

Do this today

  • Use a professional email (firstname.lastname@gmail.com — not partyboy99@)
  • City + country only, no full address
  • LinkedIn URL with a clean custom handle
  • Phone number only if you're comfortable with calls

If your email or LinkedIn URL is embarrassing, it's the cheapest fix on your resume.
