Ah an individual data point, the crème de la crème of evidence.


I have not heard of any other developers needing to furnish references either. Just ask on HN or Reddit or Twitter, most devs will say they're not needed.


I've had to provide them for 3/4 positions so far (in Australia), and have provided many references - usually over a phone call with a hiring manager.


I've had to provide them for all job searches I've done (Silicon Valley).
