Preparing for a DBS check involves ensuring that you have all the necessary identification documents ready and that your personal information is accurate. Gather documents such as your passport, driving licence, utility bills, and any other proof of identity that may be required. It’s also helpful to review your own criminal record, if applicable, to be prepared for any discussions with potential employers. Additionally, ensure that you understand the type of DBS check being requested and the implications it may have for your job application.
