Ask Aimee!


An irresponsible, job-hopping friend asked me to be a reference for her. How do I say "no" and still keep the friendship?

Especially in these competitive, unstable times, you should never jeopardize your professional integrity and reputation for someone unworthy of your praise. Offer to privately support her, help her find job openings, and practice her interviewing skills. You can still play an active role in her job search without being a reference.
