My resume states point blank that references will not be provided until after the prospective employer agrees in principle that I meet the technical job requirements. I send out a lot of resumes, and I am more protective of my references time than I am of my own. I don't want people wasting their time with useless phone calls because of me.
Strangely enough, whenever a company gets past that point in the interview process, most of them don't even bother asking.
- schwap 10y agoI just go with the simple "References available on request" and have had the same results (nobody ever ends up asking for them).
- logfromblammo 10y agoI put that on my resume in the past. I had to change it after a company requested them before scheduling an initial phone screen.
