What would a previous employer have to say about you? Solidifying this information is crucial and eliminates any surprises.
Notify your references ahead of time as a common courtesy. Have a list of prior employment references, including the names of your direct superiors, along with personal references available. Also, furnish a copy of your resume to your references to assist them in answering questions from prospective employers.
In addition to reference checking, employers may conduct other pre-employment requirements such as criminal investigation, credit reports, drug testing, and personality profiling
