Question about who to list as a job reference:
I'm applying for a job that's all about the work I did for a decade, but haven't done at all for 10 years. I am still connected to one of my former supervisors, but the others have either died or I've lost complete touch with them. I'm still in contact with some of the community leaders I worked with in those jobs, though. I'm required to submit three professional references. Do I include my one former supervisor and my two current supervisors who can't speak directly to my competency at my former tasks? Or should I use all old references, two of whom were never my supervisors? What do you think, O Great Group Mind?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
