Gwen's Part 2 and 3

Practicing reference interviews with my coworker was a fun and enriching experience. She asked all the right questions, and was able to find out exactly what my references needs were, and to find several different sources to provide the information I needed. Learning from her reference interview, I was able to ask the right questions to help answer her reference question.

I chose an email format for asking a reference question. I received an answer that was appropriate to the age group I specified, accompanied by the source of the information, and delivered promptly, in a friendly and professional manner.

All these experiences will undoubtedly be helpful the next time I am asked a reference question.
