ID security checks/references
Hiya
I have just been offered a job and was very happy until now. I have to write down exact dates for everything and about 2 years ago I had a job which was not continious employment but project by project though I was there most of the time I had gaps. What should I do, can I put down a personal reference like a neighbour to verify where I was? My god I have got gaps which until now never thought about, like travelling etc. This is a nightmare to think I worked so hard to get into this industry and might not by able to start.. I feel like crying. help please.

Take a deep breath and relax. You are only being asked for your employment history not what you doing on a friday night five years ago ! If you have a period when you were travelling around or simply unemployed than say so. Disclosure Scotland
are only carrying out a basic check of any 'criminal' convictions so
provided you only have a for example a couple of speeding tickets then no problem. When you do submit your application be aware that it could take upwards of two months to come back due to backlog.
Goodluck with the job
