8. Referees
Referees are people who know you as an individual and are willing to speak in support of you. You must ask
someone first before putting them as a referee on your resume. Consider asking a teacher, family friend,
sporting coach or a parent of one of your friends if they are happy to be a referee. It must be someone who
actually knows you as a person, not just someone who can say they have known you since you were born but
doesnt really know much about you as an individual.
Put their name, relationship to you, phone number and email address at the bottom of your resume. Referees are
likely to contacted if a prospective employer is thinking of giving you a job, so it is great if you hear that they have
rung your referee.
9. Personal Characteristics
Try to demonstrate these in your achievement statements and/or your cover letter. You can have a section that
outlines the sort of person you are, but it is more powerful if you can show them what you are like through the
way you write your resume.
