References that Help You Seal the Deal

Make it easy

People are more likely to be a reference for you if you help take the weight off of them. Make it easy for references to say good things about you.

Let them know what you’ve been up to and provide them with an updated resume.

Give them warning that a potential employer has asked for references.

Ask them to let you know when or if they have been contacted.
