Every job hunter needs a list of references — people who will speak of your skills and abilities in a favorable light. Here are a few samples that show how to organize a reference list.
Sample Job Reference List
October 22nd, 2008 | by admin | Here is a sample job reference list that I use all the time and
recommend to my customers. From www.jobinterviewtools.com
It’s very important to list job references who have direct knowledge of
your past job performance. If you have to, you can always go beyond
your immediate supervisor and include past or present co-workers,
subordinates, customers, suppliers, members of trade associations, or
anyone else who can praise your work. Don’t use relatives or friends
for personal references because they have no direct knowledge of your
performance on the job.
Most importantly - never list a job reference until you have gained that
person’s permission to do so.
This is more of the same, but here is another article on how to format a list of job references.
