Job-Seeker Resume Tutorial:
How to Develop and Polish Your Job-Search Resume

 

How Should I Handle References?

 

Here's how to handle your references...

• List on a separate page with same name/address/phone number/e-mail heading as your resume. Do not submit with resume unless requested. Give to employer at end of interview if you are interested in this position.
• See sample reference lists.
• List a minimum of 3 business references: People who have direct knowledge of your daily job performance. Get their approval first. Provide your references with a copy of your resume.
• List contact's name, title, company, complete address, phone number with area code, and e-mail address (if they use it).
• Don't ever submit your list of references unless it is requested by the employer.
• Learn more about the importance and value of references in our article, References: The Keys to Choosing and Using the Best Job References in Your Job Search
