After I have registered, how soon can you get me out to work?

In line with CQC (The Care Quality Commission) guidelines, every care recruitment or domiciliary care agency must complete a personal file checklist for each of their candidates to ensure that you are compliant to work with elderly and vulnerable people. As soon as you have had your interview and your file is completed, we will get you out to work.

Can you offer me work if I am coming from overseas?

We are no longer able to offer candidates work permits, therefore you must either have an EU or UK passport or hold one of the visas listed here. If you are eligible to work and coming to the UK for the first time, check out our tips for working and living in the UK.
