References
Safer recruitment means we take up references before anyone starts, and we need two employer references . Reference 1 must be your current or most recent employer , and Reference 2 the employer before that. If you only have one recent employer, tick the box under Reference 2 and we will ask about a tutor or professional referee instead. Please do not give friends, relatives or colleagues who were not senior to you. We will not contact anyone until after your phone chat.
Employment Reference 1 your current or most recent employer
Company address
Employment Reference 2 the employer before your most recent one
I only have one recent employer I can use as a reference
Are you studying now, or have you studied in the last two years? A tutor or teacher from your course can act as your second referee.
Please select…
Yes
No
Do you know a professional who could act as your referee? For example a doctor, nurse, teacher, social worker, solicitor, accountant or faith leader who has known you for at least two years, and who can be contacted on a professional email address (such as info@marigoldcaregroup.co.uk), not a Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo or similar personal address.
Please select…
Yes
No
Noted. This may slow your application down. We need two satisfactory references before anyone starts work, so without a second checkable referee your application may take longer to process. You can still submit it now, and we will talk through your options at your phone chat.
Your date of birth and National Insurance number from step 1 are shared with your referees so they can find your record, and with no one else.
Declaration and Authorisation
By completing and submitting this form, you confirm that the information provided is accurate and authorise Marigold Home Care Ltd to contact the referees listed above to request and obtain references as part of its safer recruitment and pre-employment checks. You understand that the information obtained will be used to assess your suitability for employment and processed in accordance with applicable data protection legislation.

Declaration
Care workers support vulnerable people, and we take our responsibility to protect them seriously. Your appointment depends on a satisfactory enhanced DBS check with a check of the barred lists.
Criminal record
We do not ask about criminal records on this form. If we offer you a job, we will ask you privately, on a separate form, before your enhanced DBS check. A criminal record will not necessarily stop us employing you. Please do not include any details of convictions, cautions or police matters anywhere in this application.
As an organisation using criminal record checks processed through the Disclosure and Barring Service, we comply with the DBS Code of Practice and treat every applicant fairly. We only ask about convictions and cautions we are legally entitled to know about, only once we have made a conditional offer, and we do not discriminate unfairly on the basis of a conviction or other information revealed.
Previous care roles
Declaration
Please read these statements carefully. If there is anything you do not understand, ask us before you submit.
This form is an application only, not an offer of employment. It is used to shortlist candidates and to confirm that the information needed for a care role is in place: checkable references and the right to work in the UK.
Marigold Home Care Ltd will make checks to verify the information I have provided, including references, right to work, qualifications and an enhanced DBS check with barred list check.
Providing misleading or false information, or leaving something out, may disqualify me from appointment or, if I have already been appointed, may result in my dismissal.
Any offer of employment depends on satisfactory references, documentation and the completion of pre-employment checks, and I will be required to complete the company’s induction training before I start work with clients.
My personal information will be handled in line with UK data protection law, used only to decide whether I am suitable for the role, and, if my application is unsuccessful, kept only for as long as the company’s recruitment retention policy requires.
I confirm that the information provided in this application is true, accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge, and I have read and agree to the statements above.
I understand that the role I am applying for is subject to an enhanced DBS check with a check of the barred lists, and I consent to this being carried out, and to a copy of the certificate being retained, if I am offered a position.

Any other comments or information
What happens after you submit?
Our recruitment team reviews your application within two working days. If it is a match, we invite you to a phone chat first, no assessment centres, no group interviews. Your ID, right to work and DBS documents come after that chat, not before.
