[quote=Anonymous]...do you also include the contact info for the former employer who wrote it as one of your references? I recently asked two former MBs to write letters of recommendation for me, thinking that would be easier for them than having to respond to every single future potential client I interview with. I have other great references, so I figured I'd just include the recommendation letters from those two MBs, and then contact info for other references. But now I'm thinking that it might come off as odd to have glowing letters of recommendation when I'm not also providing the opportunity to follow up on them with the employers who wrote them (because obviously, anyone could just write a fake letter of recommendation pretty easily, right?). I don't know, what is standard here?

I'm starting to feel guilty for asking them to even write the letters because now they had to take time to write them (and they are lovely and fairly long, 1.5-2 pages each), and they may still have to continue to respond to reference requests?[/quote]
