• Client Name

• Current Employer
• Job Titles
• Industry Keywords
• High Stakes Job Searches

Replace your client's name with a generic term or job title such as:

• Confidential Candidate
• eSolutions Marketing Candidate
• eSolutions Expert
• Confidential Candidate / CEO

NOTE: When you set up the CareerFolio, if you select the option "confidential," the CareerFolio will have a URL such as:

www.careerfolio.com/anonymous164

If your client's email address is based on their name (i.e., johnfrank@abc.com), they should set up a new email account that is "nondescript."

Remove the name and location of your client's current employer and replace it with a general company description:

• High tech manufacturing firm
• Fortune 500 company
• International sales consulting agency
• Confidential employer

See these principles at work: Confidential Web Resume

Replace unique, industry-specific, or product-specific job titles with more generic (but equivalent) job titles.

For example, use Quality Assurance Manager instead of Manager of Widget Systems Quality Assurance.

Eliminate these kinds of keywords and terms from the resume:

• Specific industries, markets, products
• Client names, company names
• Industry-specific jargon, technologies, certifications

In High Stakes Job Searches

• Remove graduation and / or college attendance dates from the resume's "Education" section. When motivated, employers and recruiters can track down identities through graduation dates and academic records.
• Remove specific cities, locations, and geographical criteria from job entries and replace with generic terms.
