It's for a dental assistant job. I have no experience, idk why theyre hiring me lol but if you pm i can tell you my previous experience that could be related to this job! I will gladly return this favor!
Hello everyone, I'm currently in the final step and I have received my offer but unable to provide 4 references, only have 2.
I went through 2 virtual interviews and 1 in person where they tested me and it went extremely well, but they didn't mention references until now. I have no one to reference in canada and my current boss is a narcissist that denied my EI and lied on my ROE when I was injured so I don't get support while recovering.
I dont want to sound desperate but this feels like the only option for me even though im getting a pay cut but I can't work for him anymore. How can I get references even if I showcase my work rebuilding and maintaining equipment.
Any help and guideance is greatly appreciated!
Hi everyone, I am looking for 2 people to help out! I used to be a hospital unit clerk here in canada, but due to petty hospital politics I had to leave my unit and take time to de stress. I'm applying to a new position and would love a couple of people to help me out, thank you!
I would need 2 people in a supervisory role OR charge nurses/ regular nurse.
I am willing to be a reference in exchange if someone needs one in health/dental care in canada!
Hi all! Finally got a job after months of trying but now need two references. Can provide more details if you’re down. Appreciate the help 🙏
edit - will need LinkedIn for reference
hey guys!!
i just recently got a fancy full time job working for the state. i have only ever been in part time minimum wage positions and haven’t made any professional connections strong enough to be references, so im kind of at a loss right now. my job wants me to list 3 references with companies, job titles, email addresses, and phone numbers- and every field is required to be filled out. this job will get me out of a very very bad place in my life and i am desperate to keep it, so this post is a last resort lol
The job is as a tax representative for the state of NJ answering phone calls and logging info in the system as well as helping people apply and receive tax benefits.
this is pretty urgent as the company is sending me scheduled email reminders about this form every 8 hours

Hello! I hope all is well, I finally got a job offer after 4 long years of applying! I really need a reference bad, as soon as possible! If anyone is willing I would be extremely grateful 🥲 Im located in NYC, I only need 2 references. I work in theater. Thank you for taking the time to read this, Happy Friday 🤗
Hi all, I need 3 professional references. I’ve been out of a job since last October. Applying both in NY and CA to gov (state/local) jobs. Just hoping to get my foot in the door with basic jobs and hoping to move up / take promotional exams once they open up. Any and all help is much appreciated! Please and thank you 🙏
Previous jobs were in Operations mostly, I have someone experience working as an assistant project manager. If you have any tips or suggestions regarding jobs I’m open to that as well. Currently in NY but I have some family in CA so either place would work.
Just received an offer for a job and they want to do 2 reference checks. They said either phone or email is fine. If I create an email address using a public library wifi network then reply to the reference check email from the recruiter using the same public wifi network , will they know it’s me ?
Hello, I’m trying to land my first job out of school and would love if someone would vouch for me as a former “coworker” at an “internship” I had. I would use professors, but they specifically want business references. It would mean a lot!
Thank you!
Can anyone who has done this tell us how it went?
I haven’t had anyone to use as a reference for years. I have been stuck in burn out for the last two years and I am getting myself out the rut. Just need a bit of help. 2 references to apply for the AmeriCorps program. Can’t be friends or family which I don’t have. Has to be supervisor or people I’ve know for at least a year.
Just got a verbal offer after months of searching. But they are wanting me to provide 6 references! This is some straight up BS. I have 3 that I can provide them. But I don't know 3 more people. Is anyone else able to assist pretty please? Industry is healthcare.
I have a current placement through a recruiting agency and I need two references if I want to move to any other placement.
My current job has been saying for over a year that they love me and want to bring me on permanently. I’d also love for that to happen because I’m massively underpaid right now! Thing is, they don’t have any funding to do it and I can’t wait any longer.
I don’t want my current supervisors in the know yet and I was laid off from my previous role with major burnout so the thought of reaching out to my previous coworkers is giving me major anxiety.
I’m more than willing to also be your reference as well if needed. Located in the US. I’d be going for data analysis or operations analyst type roles.
Not networking early in your career has long-term consequences. If you get good feedback, ask for a written testimonial while you can. Don’t wait until you feel “qualified.”
I’m now a software engineer again after years of developer support work, doing fullstack platforms and data engineering again. But my current employer prohibits references. Recruiters repeatedly tell me my testimonials don’t demonstrate my engineering experience, and I’m consequently being funneled toward support roles despite being overqualified.
I tracked down my old manager today to finally ask for explicit permission to publish the testimonial, only to learn they’d passed away suddenly last year. I’m heartbroken. And I can’t find or remember anyone else from that team.
Also wanted to feature their review on my website, but they were data privacy nerds. I know a recruiter won’t be able to verify them with a quick google search. It would be so helpful to have someone be the source for their testimonial who can actually be verified.
I’m looking for someone who can genuinely vouch for my software engineering work with a verifiable testimonial/reference. Not asking anyone to lie for me. Just look over my work and vouch. I’m from a minority background and don’t have technical connections in my personal life to ask.
If you’re willing to help, please DM me. I’m happy to return the favor however I can. ❤️ RIP to the best manager I ever had :(
Just got off a call with a marketing agency and they asked me for 2-3 references of places I previously worked.
I'm a freelancer & don't want to let any clients I'm currently working with know that I might be leaving them but the jobs I've had in the past aren't really related to marketing.
Just came across this sub whilst looking for solutions on reddit (as one always should 😂). Just wondering if anyone here would like to be my reference in exchange for one in the future or some other favor (but don't get any ideas...).
If so, can DM you some of my details if you comment here. Ideally could send you the info later today/tomorrow.
Hello,
I am in need of 2 references by today/tomorrow. I am in a bind because they are requiring that it be someone I reported to - not any other professional reference like former clients or professional associates - and only one of my former managers has returned their call. That's surprising because I thought I was on good terms with all of my former workplaces, but maybe they are holding it against me that I left abruptly for other opportunities.
The one reference who was called was nice enough to reach out to me afterwards, so I know the general questions (5 minute or so phone call). I will be able to provide my job duties since they do ask what I did and what my goals/metrics were.
Location: USA
References needed: 2
Job area: Tech - Account Executive, B2B Inside Sales
Timeline: today/tomorrow ideally
Please let me know if you can help and I would be more than happy to provide a reference in return!
Dying to get out of my current hospitality admin position, but don't want my managers to know as I do need the job and I'd like to get out without burning bridges. Found a job in operations which is very much up my street in terms of experience and career progression desire but it needs references in the cover letter, could anyone be my reference? Would obviously happily return the favour to anyone who needs it? UK, one reference, application needs to be submitted by the 14th.
Title
It's very competitive right now in my area do to limited job openings and lot's of applicants! I have the knowledge, skills and readiness, I just need a team to pick me up. If anyone is willing to write a glowing letter of recommentation that I can send in with my application, I will happily return the favor. :)
If I could get some help, I just need 2 more professional references, if you could say we just took car damage photos together for finance companies from 2016 to 2020. This is for an inspector job. Location is Jacksonville, FL.
