[quote=Anonymous]Yes, it is typical. Many recruiters these days are asking for references even before they start setting up interviews with their clients. One recruiting firm even asked me to sign the background check consent - even prior to sharing information about the job opportunities. I didn't bother to meet with that recruiter, but they are a large firm and apparently other job seekers sign such consent forms. I've printed out my impressive performance reviews and share them with the recruiters and employers, so they don't even call my references after reading reviews. I also read a book recently where the author suggests videotaping your referrals saying good things about you and uploading such videos to the web. That way you can just share the links with anyone interested.[/quote]
