Do you have a recently completed reference? We can accept prior references that meet the following criteria:

  • The reference form was completed within the past 24 months

  • The reference pertains to a position you have held in the past 24 months

❗ Some facilities or hiring managers may have stricter timeframe requirements and therefore require references to be completed and from employment within the past 12 months.

  • The reference must ask and answer your eligibility for rehire. This means that if given the opportunity would your reference rehire you. Your reference form would need to ask and answer the question, "Would you rehire this candidate?"

  • The reference must be from a charge, manager, or supervisor. No peer or personal references are accepted.

Here's an example of what an acceptable reference form looks like!

❗ No matter if you opt to request a reference or upload a previously completed reference form, your Care Team will be reviewing your references when you apply to Matches. To prevent any delays in reviewing your applications, you must ensure your previously completed reference form meets all of the requirements listed above.
