Category : Applications

Answer :

Your referees must be able to assess your suitability for the post.  

One of the nominated referees should be a manager from your current or most recent employment. If you have just completed full-time education, your course tutor, or other academic staff member familiar with your work, could be selected. Family members or personal friends should not be named as referees.

References will be taken up if you have been successful in obtaining the post.
