[quote=Anonymous]I would love to have three, but it depends a bit on how much experience the candidate has. We interviewed one woman who had been with one family for 13 years - obviously she wasn't going to have 3 references. So someone whose references account for a significant portion of their work history, even if they can only provide one or two, might be great. I would never hire someone without being able to speak to at least one significant reference, and even then I think I'd want two. It's just too risky otherwise. I would be willing to take a character reference in lieu of a formal employer reference for one of 3, or MAYBE one of 2 references, but I'd need everything else about the candidate to be truly stellar.[/quote]
