Based on best practices for filling out a job application, the true statements are:

  1. Do not leave any blank spaces - It's important to fill out all sections of the application to provide a complete picture of your qualifications.

  2. Use neat handwriting - If the application is handwritten, it's essential to ensure that it is legible and looks professional.

  3. Write in a list of references - It is common to provide references on a job application if requested, although sometimes you might indicate that references are available upon request.

The other statements are generally not recommended or incorrect:

  • Exclude information about being fired from a job - While it's important to be honest, if asked, it's best to handle such topics tactfully rather than excluding them outright.
  • Only submit handwritten job applications - Most applications can be filled out digitally, and it is often preferred in modern job searching to submit them electronically.

Therefore, the correct selections are "do not leave any blank spaces," "use neat handwriting," and "write in a list of references."
