hi all just asking, how do i present my british telephone numbers on my resume. Do i need to put area codes in for alberta and ontario and if so what are they. Please help!

Show it as you would dial from Canada, no?

011-441-no zero, rest of area code, number.

You've got an extra 1 after the 44 in there.

Standard nomenclature would be +44 then your UK area code minus the initial zero

The long form would be 01144 then the UK code minus the initial zero

i.e. for Bedford UK (01234) from Canada or the US you would dial

01144 1234 etc

The "011" is the international access
"44" is the country code for the UK
1234 is the local area code

But dont expect many to call....

Really?

I dial 011-441-424-nnnnnn for my Mother. It works. I thought her number dialled from within the UK was 0424-nnnnnn but maybe not. Maybe it's 1424-nnnnnn.

Her number (in the UK) will have changed from 0424 to 01424 a few years back. Clearly they had to increase the capacity of the numbering system from 10 billion numbers to 100 billion. Personally I blame it on the illegal immigrants. Coming over here, stealing our phone numbers.

thanks for your advice, cheers, luxel

Ah ha! Thanks. No wonder I can't work the phones no more.

Stick to the trees dbd or the chainsaw!

Agreed if you get 1 call Ill be most shocked!! I never got any, until your here unless your in a very special proffession or know someone who knows someone you have no hope that way.

My friend gets his shiny visa this summer sometime and as I told him - put my Ontario home no the resume because if he uses his UK one they wont bother looking!
