References...in general


Quick question.....when employers ask you for references what do you supply them? I was just asked for them and what I supplied them is: name, job position  and phone number....if not a supervisor reference then what my relationship is( co-worker).

Is that all I should have supplied?

It depends on what the company wants. I have been asked for three supervisors, three peers and three subordinates... somewhat excessive if you ask me.

List your references on a separate sheet of resume paper showing like this

Mr. John Smith

Chief Financial Officer, His Current Company, Inc.

(Former Controller of The Company Where You Both Worked, Inc.)

Phone number

Okay so let them guide what they want.......that' s basically what I put on there. I think I may have forgotten titles....
