List of References

The following is an example of the format of a list of references to provide to employers who request references. You can either provide a typed list of references or email the list to your contact at the company.

Don't send a list of references until it is requested by the employer and before you include a reference on your list, make sure that you have received permission to use that person as a reference. Be sure to include full contact information for each of references.
