While using your work phone is okay provided it’s a secure line and you don’t have to worry about someone else screening your calls, I’d stay away from using your work e-mail for your job search. There are a number of reasons for this including the risk your employer will see your e-mails and possibly terminate your employment before you are ready. Plus you will lose all of your job search-related correspondence once your employment ends (realize this could be potentially valuable information for future searches). You are better off creating an e-mail address for your job search activities that is separate from both your work and personal correspondences.
