Reference letters

Reference letters

This page should look very similar to the resume. The same header should be used, containing the same information. Helpful hints:

  • Always talk to your references before you put them on your list.
  • You should always have at least 3 no more than 5 references.
  • Do not use personal references, instead use previous employers or individuals who know your work abilities.
  • Make sure you have the exact title of your references and the correct spelling of names, etc. on the reference sheet. If you sell your references short, you'll be selling yourself short.
  • Here is a list of how your references should be presented:
    Name
    Title
    Organization
    Complete address
    Phone
    E-mail
