• Resumes: If you have a public resume, you can prevent employers from finding your resume during searches by changing the resume status to 'private.' Click the 'edit' link in the resume status section of your resume and follow the instructions on the status edit page.
• Saved Searches: If you are currently receiving email alerts based on one or more of your saved searches, you can stop receiving email updates and still maintain your seraches for later use. To do so, change the 'Email Frequency' option to 'Never.'
• Newsletters: If you are currently receiving Monster newsletters, you can stop receiving these email messages by deselecting the checkboxes on the newsletters sign-up page. To access that page, click 'Account' on the main My Monster menu bar.
• Updates and Offers: When you created your account, you chose whether or not you wanted to receive Monster Updates and Monster Partner Offers via email. To change your communication settings, click the 'edit' link associated with the Updates & Offers section on the main account page. To access that page, click 'Account' on the main My Monster menu bar. Note: It can take up to week for these changes to take effect.

• Verify the legitimacy of the email, company, and specific employment opportunity. There are three simple ways you can do this:
  1. If the email contains a link, you can validate the URL by going directly to the company’s website using the company's main URL rather than relying solely on the links provided in the email.
  2. If the email includes a job proposition, the job should be listed on the company website. You can also call the company directly using the company's publicly listed phone number to verify the job opportunity.
  3. Research the company by conducting an Internet search and by using the Better Business Bureau.
• Do not share personal information unless you are confident that the other party is who they claim to be. The following information is not collected by Monster and should not be included on your resume:
  • Social Security number
  • Driver license number
  • Bank account information
  • Credit card information
  • Passwords
• Disregard all emails offering employment opportunities that involve acting as a go-between for money transfers.
• Verify the legitimacy of a potential employer before engaging in any monetary transactions or before providing credit card, bank information, or personal information requested to conduct an applicant background check.
• Protect yourself from employment opportunity fraud by looking for these warning signs:
  • Email-only communication
  • Overly-simplified requirements/qualifications
  • Ability to work from home and/or only 2-3 hours of work per day
  • Broken English, spelling mistakes and/or grammar errors
  • Requests for bank account information or Social Security number
  • Management of monetary transactions
  • Repackaging or reshipping from your own home
  • Compensation based on using funds you withdrew from a banking account
• Be wary of any email that asks you to download a tool or update your account or access agreement. Monster will never send an email requesting that you take these steps or ask you for your account username and password.
