Address on resume

mdler

Is there any reason to put my mailing address on my resume if my email and telephone # are on it???

There probably isn't any reason that will affect whether or not you get the job.
But: if you don't get the job it's standard procedure in a lot of firms to inform you of this in a letter - so if you want to get such letters you should put an address on there.

I was once offered a job partly based on my address: they were tired of employees who were late due to traffic problems and they saw that I lived within walking distance so I became the top candidate based on proximity. I didn't take that job.
