Question about my CV
I'm not sure if this is the right place, but seeing as I'm not including a copy of my CV I don't think I should put it in the CV advice section.
Anyway...
I haven't done any work or volunteer work, so have no references,
And I know that you can get your references back from UCAS for a small fee.
So if I did get my school references back would I be able to include them in my CV or do I need permission from the school or ucas or something.
I might quickly add that I have just applied (this year) through ucas and am not a graduate, but am looking for alternatives to university. -
Re: Question about my CVYou don't put references in your CV, not even the phrase References available on request, so this is only an issue when someone actually asks you for references. You can ask any adult who knows you form a position of responsibility (not a family member or friend) so teachers, sports coaches, cadet leaders etc. The employer asks for references, you simply give them the details of a referee who has agreed to provide them for you, so they are new every time.(Original post by dean01234)
