Phone number services (lemmy.ca)

I am searching for a job and require my phone number to be included on my resume. Is there a service available in the EU (excluding the UK) that can provide this.

That's exactly the point: get a cheap new phone number, preferrably one that doesn't link back to your identity. And it's typically an online service, otherwise it's not gonna be cheap or private (in my country anyway).

I'd do the opposite from what OP wants: a second line for online platforms.

I don't think avoiding your potential employer seeing you reposting something like fuckworkmemes is taking privacy too far 😉
