How/ Who should I ask for references
I've been working at a retail store for 8 months, and I have several different store managers already. Which store managers should I ask for references? (store managers are constantly reassigned to different branches so I only work with each for roughly 2 months) #career-counseling #referrals #references #retail-management #retail-sales #job-coaching #interviews #interviewprep

Are you allowed to put any of your professors down as references for applying to job?
I have never actually asked any of my professors this question. To me it sure seems like a very good idea because they are the ones who see how dedicated you are, motivated, and willing you are to work. Not to mention all the effort and devotion you put into your grades. I hope that this can happen because then I will have tons of great references in my corner! I'm sure if you ask him or her and they give you the okay it is allowed, but technically is it something that you should do? #professor #job #job-search #referrals #references
How to request a recommendation from someone who has previously written one for you?
As a college student, I've had several professors write me recommendations and agree to be my references. In the future, when I'm applying to something new and need a recommendation or reference, how do I go about asking them again? Should it be expected that they will accept, or would it vary depending on their current situation? Would it be appropriate to ask to catch up over coffee and make the request at the end? #professor #recommendation #referrals
