What to Do If You Can't Provide Enough Referees for Your Referoo Application
Quick Overview
If you are unable to provide the number of referees requested for your application, you will need to speak directly with your recruiter. The required number of references is set by your recruiter, and only they can adjust this requirement for your application.
Contact Your Recruiter
If you are unable to provide the number of referees requested for your application, we recommend discussing this with your recruiter, as they are the ones who have specified the required number of references.
Where to find your recruiter's contact details: Your recruiter's contact details are available in the email you received from them, or in the top right-hand corner of your Candidate Dashboard.
☆Tip: If you don't have enough professional references, your recruiter may be able to approve a character reference as an alternative. See the article Can I Submit Character References? for more information.
