I live in UK and i don’t know if the same rules apply. I use my work email address to apply for other jobs. I work for the NHS. I reasoned that recruiters would be able to see that I work for a ‘big’ company. A recruiter’s most important job is saving his or her company money and this can be from getting human resources that do not require training. Using your work email makes them know that you have been trained at another person expense. Also they are more likely to assume that your personal attributes and person specification will match what they are looking for. Like i said I used my NHS outlook email to apply for jobs and i have secured a new position with another organisation. So as far as I am concerned there is nothing wrong. 1 Like |

benzion72: I guess you have not heard of data privacy. The only exceptions for using your emails is if you use it for illegal activities like child porn or criminal stuffs. Most companies use blockers on their computers so you can not open facebook for instance. Where i work at present, you can not open gmail, i would like tso see them fire me for receiving an email and then they will explain to a judge what happened to confidentiality. |

That's sheer stupidity Your CV has your work experience and recruiter might do independent investigation if truly you work where you stated on your CV |

It is not acceptable... Very unprofessional conduct and could be grounds for dismissal |

smakati: You can enlighten me, what I know is that mail pass through the server and we have what is called audit trail. You will not even be informed why you are fired. You just hear service no longer required like a bank fired some people recently with sms alert |

It doesn't sound well... It should be against the internal and IT policy of the firm. Can lead to dismissal as well. Can be compared to being a current girlfriend and poaching to another girlfriend. NOT TO BE TRIED |

Your official emails are monitored, so not advisable. |

If am the prospective employer, I will automatically disqualify you because that shows how careless you are with official resources. |

Personally, I wouldn't say its inappropriate or completely right. I've had personal experiences using official mail to make enquiries and some few applications too. I noticed the formal responses I get as compared to using my personal mail. Though I usually copy my personal mail in all correspondence. Again, it depends on how lenient or strict your company's policies are as regards mail usage. |
