    My DH is a director in a company that employs a lot of people world wide. They have the same policy on references. However, he does give references for certain people. I think this must be done informally by a lot of people.
    I just had lunch with my supervisor from my internship, as I am going to have to use her as a reference when I start looking for a new job in a month or two. I can't ask my current bosses, as they are being so nice to me, trying to think it will make me stay! They kind of know I am going to be paring down my caseload, so I don't want to cause any more stress.

    Well, application submitted. It's a slightly confusing system, so I hope that I got it right. I was feeling super-nervous beforehand, but now that it's done, I'm excited. This has the potential to be really good for me.

    Thanks for all of your help!!

    Good luck!!

    Re: references and former colleagues, you might try looking for people on Linked In. I don't really use that site much, but I'm connected to a bunch of former coworkers there, and it's a fairly easy way to be able to reach people if you want to ask for a reference (or just say hi...).
