List of References

You'll need a list of references if you are graduating this year and looking for a job. (It is not required if you are seeking an internship or co-op.) Some employers will ask you for a list of references -- you'll be ready. Employers typically check references by phone.

Get started

Wondering who to choose as your references? Choose those who know you well -- a mixture of faculty, intern or co-op supervisors, and/or community contacts. No relatives! Once you have their permission, add them to your list.  Provide each reference with a copy of your resume and a note of thanks.
