I've been told by a close friend, that they don't give references because we are 'Locums'...???

Is this true?
I'm guessing that it might be a problem with some of the multiples as I'm not sure who would give the reference if you are mainly locumming in branches without managers. Human Resources would no little (if anything) about you.

You could always suggest taking the job that you are applying for on a locum basis with a view to management (after x weeks) if it's acceptable to both parties.
