Good Morning!

djm06:07:06

We were promised a free day off if England won yesterday 😢

jasonbell08:07:13

Back to work then @djm_uk

Aron09:07:05

Morning 🙂

Sorry to hear you are having side effects @mccraigmccraig - TeamPfizer or TeamAZ? (I got jab 2 on Saturday just gone)

mccraigmccraig10:07:15

neither - moderna - pretty minor side-effect though

maleghast11:07:06

Ah well, glad to hear it's not so bad 🙂

I am filling out paperwork for new employment, and I am so confused, it would be funny, if it wasn't happening to me 😛 Reference request page asks for details of "referees". Both position held and period of employment is listed, but for some reason I am guessing the position held is about the person whose name I am sharing, but the period of employment is about me? Or both are about me?

Aron12:07:14

Tried to call the HR, but they haven't responded yet 🙂

Aron12:07:13

Until then, if you care to share your opinion, what do you think I should write for position? Mine or the "referee's"?

Jordan Robinson12:07:11

I would assume the position and period of employment would be for the referee

Jordan Robinson12:07:26

e.g. "John Smith - Pub Landlord - 3 years"

Jordan Robinson12:07:47

it's kind of odd though I haven't had to fill out one like that except for things like passports etc

Aron13:07:22

large corporation, so it has some quirks

Aron13:07:01

but the period can't be for the referee, I have zero idea when they started working, they got there through an acquisition

Aron13:07:37

position held could be important, am I giving someone middle manager's contact, or a HR assistant's?

djm13:07:28

It could be that they want to know the person’s relationship to you, and how long you worked together, but who knows

alexlynham15:07:14

position held and tenure will both be you

alexlynham15:07:01

if they specify "referee's relationship to you" or "did you report to the referee" then you might assume it's their job, otherwise prob not. just so they can find the relevant one you've listed on yr cv to match it against probs
