Adding References
The first step in finding a job you love is applying to that job! Workpop is helping you stand out from other applicants by including references directly on your application.
References show hiring managers that people you have previously worked with can vouch for your skills and abilities as an employee. While co-workers and customers are great references, managers and more senior employees tend to be viewed more positively by hiring managers.
References are tied to the position you submit them with, so if you delete a position, the reference will also disappear.
Note
Make sure you enter accurate contact information. Workpop will contact them to verify the information and hiring managers may reach out to these people when they are considering hiring you.
