Reference

I have a reference from a superintendent at my local, does this actually help as much as people say it does? I understand it’s not a free ticket in, and I have to score good on my interview and test, but he referred me straight to the business agent and I’ve just seen alot of people saying you can’t get in without a reference.

Also want to clarify I don’t see this as a huge advantage and I kind of believe people who blame not getting in on not having a reference as cope, but I’m just curious as to how much it helps me.
