Graduation season has past and as my job search begins I cannot help but feel vulnerable without my old email signature which denoted my university affiliation and (when I was working) place of work. Now unemployed and graduated, I have just my name, email, and phone number.
In applying for jobs, sending out inquiries, et cetera should I strengthen this signature with an URL to my LinkedIn or similar websites?
I guess the format would be something like this:
John Smith
XXX-XXX-XXXX | [email protected]
LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/in/linkedinname
For replies, I would list only my name and phone number.
Two more questions: (1) is the inclusion of my LinkedIn profile appropriate and (2) is there anything else that would be useful to include?
