Filling out a form for a job at CO-OP Supermarket and have a question

"Do you have proof of your entitlment to work in the UK" , would a national Insurance card do?

Also would a friend count as a refrence?

You want to be a Jon? I never knew there were applications

Just kidding

I don't know the answer to your question since I live in the US but when they ask questions like that here, they usually only want to see proof if your an alien or something like that.

Yes, and no, try a teacher instead.

You will have to give your NI number, but unless they suspect something 'proof' is not usually required.

You could put a friend down as a reference, but they wont take it very seriously as they will (probably correctly) assume a friend will big you up. The normal one if its a first job is a neighbour or friend of the family especially if they work in certain jobs (teacher, council, police, professional). Basically they probably want someone to say your not a trouble maker, have a good attitude etc... from someone they don't think will say it just to help you get a job.
