I haven’t worked in 5 years so i don’t have any current work experience or people in general for reference. I’ve been trying to find jobs but they keep asking for a reference in the beginning of the process.

I don’t have any to begin with but i also don’t want to try a dig up someone and then not even get picked or be someone of interest in the first place. I feel like it would be a waste of time.

So i’m not sure what to put.
