[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are your other two references glowing? What I have done is post online, respond to adds etc. When it gets to the phone interview stage, I briefly explain the situation: “I am not yet ready to tell my current employers that I am looking for a new position. I will need at least X weeks so that I can give them plenty of notice, but I am not able to be without employment right away so I am not telling them yet. I can give you two previous references, a letter of reference from my current employer dated X, as well as contact information for Y, who was my charge’s preschool teacher last year and has seen me interact with my current charge on many occasions. If you are prepared to offer me the position otherwise, I will let my employer know at that point and can then provide their reference information, although obviously they may not be very happy with my leaving.”[/quote] +1 This is an excellent + proper response! Very on point too. :D [/quote]
