It’s strongly recommended that employers carry out recruitment checks on potential personal assistants before offering a contract. So if you’re offered the job, your future employer will likely want to carry out
some checks. These may include references, Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) (formerly know as CRB) and right to work checks. You should bear this in mind when applying for jobs and be prepared to give names of former employers and/or character references. You may also need to provide
forms of identification as specified by the Disclosure and Barring Service or the Home
Office
