Showsec Application – Five Year Activity Form

Due to the nature of the role you have applied for, as part of BS7858 screening we need to confirm your activities over the past five years – including employment, education, and any other periods.

Please follow this guidance carefully:

Start with Your Most Recent Activity

• Begin with what you are doing right now and work backwards to cover the last five years.
  

  Choose the Correct Activity Type

• For each entry, select the activity type that best describes what you were doing (e.g., employment, self-employment, education, unemployment, career break).
  

  Provide Contact Details

• For employment, self-employment, or education, you must provide a professional or organisation email address.
• Only provide official or verified email addresses linked to the organisation. If this is not possible, contact the Recruitment team for guidance. Using unauthorised or personal emails will delay your application.
  

  No Gaps Allowed

• Make sure there are no gaps between dates.
• If you were unemployed or on a career break, you must declare this.
  

  References for Unemployment or Career Breaks

• You do not need to provide a referee for these periods.
• The Screening team will later request evidence to support the period (e.g. job search records or travel details).
  

  Confirming Each Period

• After entering each activity, click Save.
• Once the whole five years are covered, you can proceed to the next page.
