[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, as an employer I would never make a job offer without being able to talk to references--that's an important part of the evaluation process. That doesn't mean you need to give them at the first meeting, but if you declined to provide references without an offer in hand, I would move on to the next candidate. I found both recent and longest valuable (when not the same). Most people we interviewed provided a list of the past 10 years of employment (so for some that = 4-5 positions, and for others it was just 1-2) with a letter from the most recent family.[/quote] And if I provided references to everyone who interviewed me, I wouldn’t have any references left. I give a letter per family and a list of families, you may have contact info when I know I’m in the top three or better, I’m not going to give it out when I have 25% or worse chance.[/quote]
