Reference checks
December 16th 2009 09:45
Yesterday afternoon I attended an interview for another potential role I had applied for back in October. It took them a while to get back to me, but I am glad they did, because today, I got a call from HR asking me if they could check my references!!
Usually when it gets to this stage it's a good thing. Even though no official offers has been made but they wouldn't be wasting their time checking references if they didnt think you were a good candidate for them.
I am very excited indeed
Although I am still waiting for other jobs to get back to me, and I do have another interview lined up for tomorrow afternoon, at least I know, someone out there does recognise my experience and that I won't be left unemployed in 2010!!!
The references I left them were all my recent managers, and they were all informed and apparently all said good things about me. So, fingers crossed!
Also - just wanted to thank Chris who volunteered to look through my cover letter and resume for me!
