References are critical for job seekers. The best person to ask for that endorsement is your current boss. But that’s not always possible—particularly if you’re keeping your search private. You could also approach a mentor, a client, or someone you worked for in a previous position. Whoever you pick, be sure it’s someone you can trust. The best time to discuss references is during the final round of the interview process, when the employer is serious about you as a candidate.
