Not sure that is the case here in the USA where Protonmail addresses are looked at a bit suspiciously, if the person reading it even knows what it means. I have been involved in a fair bit of hiring and I would guess that about 90% of people use an ordinary Gmail or Outlook.com address. You should avoid addresses that make you look old--like an AOL, Yahoo, or Hotmail address. A key issue is deliverability, and Gmail and Outlook.com are very good at that. Their domains will not get mass blocks by anyone or else they cut off 95% of their incoming email!
