Professional Reference List

Tips for creating your reference list:



Have 3-5 references on your list who know your work capabilities; former supervisors,

colleagues, or volunteer coordinators are options



Do not include personal family members, friends, or church acquaintances on your list



Ask the reference what information they would like to share with you- for example, they might

want to share their work phone and their personal email address



Ask the reference how they prefer to be contacted so you can let a future employer know



Make sure the information listed is up to date so that a potential employer can contact your

references



Add new references with each job or internship that you have so that you have an up to date list

and contacts from recent positions
