I wondered if these emails were done specifically for finding a job, as there was a certain type of manager that would respond to this type of email and would want this type of employee.
Lots of great comments here just on email addresses. I'll add...
- First.Lastname@gmail.com works well, or some variation of that, such as including YYC (unless you move) or even a professional designation. There can be no doubt then.
- Avoid mixing similar looking numbers and letters as they get really f'd up for many people... such as O and 0, and I and 1, q and g (in some fonts are indistinguishable)
