Once you have decided who you would like to use as a reference and have gathered the necessary information, you may create a reference by clicking on "References" on the left-hand side tool bar. Once there, click on "Create New" located at the bottom of the page. Proceed to enter in the name, email address, organization for which they work, as well as their title, address, and phone number of your reference. Make sure all information you have entered is correct, then click on the red link located below the information you have entered, to send a reference request to your contact.
Once you have entered the information, your reference should appear on the "References" homepage. You now may choose to use this reference for any of your applications.
If you are in the process of creating an application, and you have not entered references, the system will prompt you to do so before allowing you to submit the application.
