Reference PageThe reference page is a separate document from the résumé. It is good practice to have three to six professional references. These individuals can make or break your candidacy. Therefore, it is important to choose people who can positively articulate your skills and abilities.
Always ask if someone is willing to serve as a positive professional reference for you prior to sharing their name or contact information. Help your references prepare for professional inquiries about you by providing a current résumé and relevant position description; confirm preferred contact information with each reference. (Employers may be required to obtain positive professional references prior to offering a position.)
1. Use the same letterhead on all of your application materials.
2. Center the page to minimize white space.
3. Provide 3-6 professional references that can attest to your work ability. Do not use character references unless requested.
4. Based on the position you are applying for, order your references in order of relevance.
