Job References

Today, more than ever, employers are relying on job references when making a hiring decision. What is said or not said by a reference could be the difference in your getting a job. If you think you know what the result of job references will be, you may be in for a surprise. What you don't know can hurt you. Information that a prospective employer discovers while checking job references could hurt your chances at hiring time.

Our clients are often shocked by what people they have listed as job references had to say when we contacted them. "He is lazy", "[s]he had no interpersonal skills", "he wasn't really a team player" and "she wasn't a very hard worker" are just some of the comments we have received while checking job references. Wouldn't it be worth it to know what a reference was going to say BEFORE your prospective employer contacted them?

What if your job references describe your job responsibilities inconsistent with your resume? This may lead a prospective employer to get the wrong impression of you. On more than one occasion, while checking job references through a personnel department, the staff volunteered to read off disciplinary incidents.
