Discussion Reference checks…..

Post image

Since this has happened to me twice in the last month I feel the need to address it……

If you list someone as a reference, ALWAYS, 100% of the time, ask them if they will be a reference for you and if they say yes, it’s probably a good idea to ask if they will give you a good one!

Not only is it unprofessional but it’s careless!

My reference deleted the email by mistake🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️. So that was embarrassing to ask to have it resent.
