Hello Reddit!
I graduated from a Big 10 University back in 2015. I spent my final year of school (plus a few months) studying and working abroad in China. As a result, when I came back to the states to look for a job here, it was especially difficult to provide references. I eventually got lucky and was hired at my current job, without any request for references from my employer.
Two years later, the salary and raises I've been receiving just aren't what I hoped for, despite very positive performance reviews and discussion with my boss. I'd like to look for jobs elsewhere in search of a pay increase, but I feel providing references is once again going to be a problem. The co-workers I think would provide the best references at my current job unfortunately are people I report to or would be significantly impacted if I were to leave my position, so I do not feel safe confidentially disclosing any plans to them.
The best thing I can think to do in this situation is leave my job a week or two before my apartment lease is up this spring, and stay with my parents for a month or two while I search elsewhere (which they have offered). This is the only way I can think to use references from my current job to look for the next without spending that time simply blowing my savings. I am curious though what other ideas you all may have?
