Hello all

I come here asking advice

Without going too much into it, I am am close to signing on to a new job but need two refrences that have to be from jobs in Australia. I am from the UK

I have had two long term jobs here but the problem is, one of them ended badly where I had to go through fair work to make a claim due to being underpaid the whole time I was there.

My only other option is to use the 90 days regional work I had to do for my working holiday visa as a reference.

My only concern is that it was a volunteer bushfire role and not a paid role. It was on a guys property and he wasn't really my manager or boss.

Should I be honest and say this is all I've got and try he 90 regional work one or should I fake one?

I'm really not sure what to do and any insight from Australians in the sub would be appreciated

Thanks
