Re: Job Searching and Character References

[personal profile] soldatsasha 2017-06-25 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Online friends and pen pals are fine to include as references imo so long as they are actual friends to the point where they know real details about your life and stuff.

The last time I applied for a job, I couldn't think of enough people to add who spoke English and was a good reference. So I actually ended up including my cousin as a reference! We don't share a last name, and we weren't friends on Facebook or anything, so I figured even if the employer Googled him they wouldn't know we were related.

imo as someone who's been on the employer side of this... you are probably not applying for a job where character references are very important. Mostly, this boss is looking to see if you can fill out an application correctly. (Though, I would also say this is a good sign you need to do more social activities of some kind, if only bc it might help your job prospects. It doesn't even need to be volunteering. Even just doing something like finding a pen pal and studying on Duolingo can be a good leg up.)

It sounds like a bad situation all around, nonny. Hopefully your caseworker eventually comes through for you. :( Good luck!
