Do people actually contact references? I feel like they don’t lol. But If you don’t have one, just ask a friend, family member with a dif last name or old co worker
You should stick to someone you’ve worked with.
The reason I am asking is because I don't have one!
Gotcha. Do you have a fellow AD or designer that can vouch for your creative abilities? Even an old professor could be fine.
I have good references, just not in advertising and who I worked with. I never keep in touch with people I used to work with in advertising. After 3-4 years, it is awkward to contact them ask for a favor suddenly. I just worry if that would be a problem for people who may want to hire me.
I probably wouldn't. They usually want someone who you have worked with or have experience with.
