[quote=Anonymous]Tell the family that's fed up that you're sorry they've had so many calls. Tell them you will not be giving out references until you know you're a final candidate, but that in any regard you will take them off your list. Then ask them if they would be willing to email you a written reference instead. And then, never give your resumes out until you know that you're the top candidate (or one of two) for a position. No reference should be expected to have the same conversation on your behalf 20 times, and there is no way to give that reference that many times without it becoming incredibly stale and canned.[/quote]
