I'm working on my References Sheet for career induction. I currently Have 3, all good, all pre-asked people with solid but separate relationships to me. One is a previous manager, one is a current co-worker, and the other is a freelance client. All with extremely separate job titles at the moment. The only thing that concerns me is they are all from my current place of employment. Does this not show enough diversity? Should I possibly have a previous employer’s manager or a professor of mine listed - even if these references are expired?? I would like to use them but should I limit my reference sheet to 3 or is it possibly overkill to have 5? 5 Would be perfect considering the accreditation of these people I just don't want to set-up an improper reference sheet.

Well, it really depends on what type of references you are trying to come across... Personal or Job related. If you want the job related ones then I see no problem in the ones you have. It shows the person receiving, how well you have worked. And each of your references were there at a different time within your job so I don't see why not... Also keep it simple... the more you have on there may be over kill. If the company asks you for more the go ahead and forward their names if they allowed you...
Good luck
