We will need to check either for the last ten years, or back to you leaving
school if that was less than ten years ago.
In completing our application form, you must give as much detail as possible of
your previous employment, together with the names of people there and a
contact telephone number if you can. If you were self-employed, the name,
address and telephone number of the accountant who looked after your affairs

Should there be any gaps in your employment through changing jobs or not
being employed, you should if possible, give names and addresses of people of
professional standing who have known you personally during those periods, or
details of the Department of Employment office at which you were registered.
The type of people falling into this category would include people such as
Certified Accountants, Doctors, Lawyers, Bankers etc. Should you be unable to
put forward names of people in these types of job, you may give names and
addresses of responsible people who have known you personally for periods not
covered by work references.
You should, in putting forward personal references, seek permission of the
