Available upon request

Select a couple to best people who would be so happy for you to succeed, just pure good humans AKA Unicorns. When you work with these type of people, have their contact details for life. 

Your lecturers, your boss from the retail shop, or the boss from the work experience place would do, well only if they come under the good humans’ category. 

Do not pick anyone who you think might give a bad reference, because it could ruin your career and you can’t, unfortunately, ask your best friend to be your referee, that one when you find your life partner.

Copy and paste this to a Word Doc and fill in the blanks.

And we are Done.
