Hi everyone

I need some advice on how to ask my new employer for a ref and when say new I mean I started last week.

I have managed to get a HCA post in womens health so obviously I want to use this as my ref instead of old pub manager coleagues.

At my interview for the job I did tell them I would return to study(didn't specify nursing or midwifery though) I'm applying for 09 entry

When should I ask? The UCAS deadline is 15th Jan and as I'm applying to Christchurch they wait until all apps are in before shortlisting but do I say it now or wait until nearer Xmas.
