Begin thinking about your references early on as it is common for an employer to ask for them during the interview process. Your references have the ability to further confirm your selection for the position you鈥檙e seeking or can provide information that could hinder your candidacy. Therefore, choose your references wisely, and be sure you get their permission to list them beforehand. Do not assume that individuals are willing to serve as a reference for you.
Select 3-5 individuals that have seen you work, have supervised you, have taught you, and can speak to those interactions and the abilities you demonstrated. These may include current or past supervisors, faculty members, faculty advisors, and advisors of clubs/organizations where you鈥檝e served as a member or officer.
