I don't think they're really of much importance except for perhaps the
first one or two jobs you have, but if you need proof to back your CV,
they're quite handy. I can't remember last time anyone saw my
references.

That's easy - keep your written references.
The problem with that is that US companies don't give written
references, or at least did not back in the 70's & 80's.
Ah, that IS a problem, yes.
They don't give them in Spain, for example. I only have one from a
supervisor. Companies don't seem to exepct them, either.
