I just realized that she only uses her middle initial on her business cards. So it is probably best to use the same name every place.

She normally used all three names on job applications and on her resume and other places, but by accident only used her middle initial on her business cards because she just filled in their standard form when she ordered the cards.
A few weeks ago she was asked some "odd questions" at two different interviews which made her think that they were hinting around to see if she had children (because, she speculated that they thought that she was married or divorced due to her middle name being a "last name"). I spoke to her earlier today and she decided to keep everything the same and use first name, middle initial and last name, on her business cards, applications, resume, Linked In, everything job related.
She said that
maybe it wasn't a problem, but just in case it was better to avoid it in this tough job market.
PS. She is single without any children.
