Correct choices:
- do not leave any blank spaces — True. If a question doesn't apply, write "N/A" rather than leaving it blank.
- use neat handwriting — True. If you must handwrite the application, make it legible.
- write in a list of references — True. Provide references if requested (with names, titles, and contact info) or note "References available upon request."

Incorrect choices:
- exclude information about being fired from a job — False. Be honest; if asked, disclose and briefly explain.
- only submit handwritten job applications — False. Follow the employer's instructions; many applications are online or typed.
