How to Cancel a Monster Account

After having my resume and personal information posted on Monster.com, I found it difficult to cancel. In fact, it seemed Monster purposely makes it difficult to cancel your account with them so they are still able to make your personal information available to others for spamming with e-mails. The e-mails you receive from third parties become excessive and frustrating. Obviously, Monster.com sells your information and e-mail for monies.

Here is how you cancel your Monster account much easier than writing them (which is what most people are instructed to do):

Cancel your Monster account online using the following steps:

1. Log in to your Monster account.
2. Click on Preferences in the upper right corner.
3. Under Resume Privacy click on Cancel Membership.
4. Click Cancel Membership once again.
5. Click Yes to confirm cancellation.
