Writing an Effective Résumé

Question 1 • 26-27 SAS Ignite Career Planning and Development - EL4222

What does a job candidate’s reference do?

Answer

writes a formal letter about how he or she knows the candidate so that the candidate will be able to take the letter to a job interview

responds to a call or an e-mail from an employer seeking information about a possible job candidate

investigates a company for a job applicant

identifies job applicants for an employer and collects their résumés

Explanation

A reference is someone who can speak to an employer about a candidate’s qualifications or character. The reference responds when the employer calls or emails to ask for information, so B is correct. Writing a letter for the candidate to bring to an interview is a possible reference letter, but it is not what a reference generally does.
