Random question: what mailing address do you put on your resume?
Your apartment/house for the academic year and then update it as you relocate for a summer job or move to a new apt/house? Or do you use your mailing address for your mailbox at your law school (assuming your university provides one) and thereby keep the same address throughout law school? I also know some people provide both "current" and "permanent" addresses.
I'm just curious since although employers/contacts would likely initially reach out via email or phone number first, if you're constantly moving there's a chance you may miss something relevant mailed to you at a former address. I've had the same address for the last 5 yrs and have actually been mailed very relevant info several months or more after providing my resume to an individual/organization, hence why I ask. Thanks!
P.S.: I am aware the address is quite meaningless on a resume now in the digital age, but I'm still curious.

It seems like the only shit that is mailed are reject letters.

Re: Mailing address on resume
I did the swap. Dorm address during the year, switched to my home address when exams started. I figured that at that point I'd be home in time to see anything important.
