been applying to a lot of jobs, in my career field and otherwise, and a lot of them are asking if they can contact my previous supervisors. they cannot, because i do not have any way to contact them myself LOL but is this really normal?? who is actually calling those people? is this affecting hiring decisions??

Yes.. I keep contact information on hand of everyone that I use as references and I make an effort to stay on touch with them.

It is how I built my professional network.
