Should You Put References On A Resume?
Should You Put References On A Resume?If you have an employer who asks you whether or not you have any references, your response is a big 'yes'. Why not? We can't change the fact that employers want to know whether or not someone has done something before.References should always be given on your resume and on the interview. You would only be confusing an employer if you say something different. Furthermore, some people do put notes in their resumes for a reference. Some others give the specific department, company or even individual.Why are references important? Sometimes, your references could tell you the truth. For example, if you recently met someone, maybe for the first time, and they are telling you that they are very enthusiastic about your business idea, but after the first meeting, they disappear. Well, this happens all the time. It can be due to simple miscommunication, if they didn't leave of their own volition, and may have been invited back to the second meeting.The inf ormation that you get from the reference can be used by your hiring manager. It could tell the hiring manager something about the person, or just clarify why they are interested in the job, perhaps it was an on-the-job training course or they just liked the way you presented yourself.When looking for references, the best people to find are current employees or former employees who are not currently working in your company. They might know someone who is now working for another company, and it might also help to find the employee's references.When we are searching for references, we need to consider a few things. First, do the references have proper references on their resumes? Second, what is the person's level of employment, and how much experience do they have?References can be turned into phrases such as, 'had a good first meeting with this individual,' or 'I enjoyed our first discussion.' These will help you feel more comfortable when talking to the references.References should be on your resume and on the interview. The reason is that you want to make sure that the employer gets what they are looking for, and if they don't, it will be confusing.
