| What they check | Which jobs | What to write |
|---|---|---|
| Qualifications | Hairdressers and beauty therapists | Level 2 and Level 3 apprenticeships, such as Hairdressing Professional or Beauty Therapist, take up to two years (National Careers Service). Give the level, the awarding body and the year. |
| A practical test | Hairdressers | Salons usually ask you to cut or colour a model at interview, so list only the techniques you can show. |
| Insurance and first aid | Self-employed personal trainers | Gyms usually ask for your own insurance and a current first aid certificate. Give the year. |
| Background checks | Personal trainers | You may need enhanced background checks, because you may work with children and vulnerable adults (National Careers Service). |
| Your numbers | Footballers | Appearances, goals, assists or clean sheets from your club's or league's records. A scout can check them, so never estimate. |
| Self-employed work | Chair renters and freelance trainers | List it like a job, with the salon or gym, the dates and the word self-employed. |
Each example page has the full list with its sources and the date we checked them.
