Make sure you use your most accessible phone number. Your voice mail needs to be clear and appropriate. What name will you go by? Make sure it matches your application, LinkedIn profile, etc. A poor email address will give employers a bad impression of you before you even meet! Full addresses are no longer required for a resume. City and state (or no address at all) is okay.
