George Fleming Ask Quotations

It's appropriate to ask references to call you back and let you know how the reference check went. This will shed light on how you were perceived during the interview. You may also get a sense of what the key issues the employer is interested in about the job you're applying for.

When the hiring manager asks for references, it's a signal the firm is interested in pursuing you as an employee. Wait until you are asked for your references; don't volunteer them.
