At Woolworths, Coles, Mcdonalds and places like these, did they actually call your referees?

Nah they didnt call mine - i dont think places which ussualy hire the young type of people dont ussualy check up on refrecnces - but im coporate jobs, and other jobs which require an education will check up on ur refrences.

afaik they didnt check mine - BUT they probably look at WHO you put as a reference i.e. Two teachers given as references probably looks better than 2 family friends.
