Compile a list of references to use as needed: Reference List

Use a Reference List to organize a set of personal and professional acquaintances who can speak on your behalf. Having references prepared before they are requested can help you to ensure that you'll have a reliable set of contacts, who have positive things to say about you when needed. Most often, a Reference List comes in handy if you are applying for a new job, a loan, or a new rental. When making your reference list, it is always a good idea to ask the listed parties in advance, both to confirm their contact details and to ensure that they feel comfortable speaking in your favor.
