Consider these eight people when making your reference list:Recent bosses. Co-workers. Professors. Friends… but only if they’re a professional reference. Group members. Any place you’ve volunteered. The person you babysat for or whose lawn you mowed every summer. High school teacher or coach you still talk to regularly.

Is it okay to only have 2 references?
