Application Sections - References

Sample References

The application also contains a section asking you for your list of references.  References are people that your potential employer may contact in order to find out more information about you and if you would be a good fit for the job.  In other words, references provide a recommendation for you. Reference checks are usually done in the final stages of the hiring process. Be prepared to write down the names of 3 references on the application. 

Make sure you have all of the following information for each reference:

  1. Their name and title
  2. Their relationship to you (i.e. teacher, supervisor)
  3. Their telephone number
  4. Their place of business
  5. Their email address
  6. Their mailing address (optional)
