Step 5: Alert Them
A helpful heads up

When you believe that an employer or recruiter is going to contact your references, notify them that they will be getting a call. You can give you references some last minute preparation by telling them about the job you are pursuing and …

  • Highlighting what was discussed in the interview
  • Telling them briefly about the company and person who interviewed you
  • Asking them to call you after they speak with the employer

By keeping in contact with your references, you’ll not only verify that the hiring process is moving forward, but also learn more about the position based on what the employer asked your references.
