Most people reading this resume online shouldn't bother contacting me. I'm happy at __XXX__ (the work, the business, and the leadership) and very well compensated here.
If you believe that you have a position for which you honestly think I'd be interested, please feel free to contact me. I insist however on restricting phone calls to principals only. I have too much to do in my day to field cold-calls from head-hunters looking to fill their Rolodexes with my name or the names of my colleagues. In fairness to my company and my colleagues, I won't assist you on a fishing expedition.
If you are a headhunter reading this, please take a moment to consider whether the position you have to fill truly fits like a glove, before investing your precious time (and mine) on a phone call. Headhunters are encouraged instead to e-mail, as this takes less of your time, and is less intrusive to my workday.
Thanks for your consideration.
(That's maybe a little aggressively anti-headhunter, especially if you're in job-search mode, which I'm not. I have nothing against recruiters per-se, but I also don't want to chit-chat on the phone with them unproductively for both of us...)
They (probably) are, in that I submitted the URL to them when I originally applied 13+ years ago and it's been used by different parts of the company for various corporate purposes over the years (board/VC decks, recruiting, depositions, etc).
Which angle are you concerned about: that I have a resume live on the internet, or that the contents are what they are(, or something else)?
As an employer, I would never worry about an employee having a resume out there (or being on LinkedIn/theLadders/other), nor do I care what content they put on the web that isn't company-proprietary. If a company thinks they want to control such things, they probably ought to find better things to concentrate on, IMO.
