Your vacancy pinned at the top of its province or category, labelled "Sponsored", until it closes. Ideal for municipalities, NGOs and recruitment agencies.
All prices in South African rand. New sponsors: ask about a discounted first campaign. Every campaign ends with a short report: views, clicks and the provinces your visitors came from.
Our promises
- Jobs, applying and email alerts on govposts are always free.
- Every paid placement is clearly labelled "Sponsored".
- We only work with sponsors who never charge applicants for a job, learnership, test or interview.
- We never sell or share our users' personal information.
Who we work with
Accredited training providers and colleges, employers running learnership and graduate programmes, municipalities, NGOs, recruitment agencies and youth employment programmes. We don't accept loans, gambling, "guaranteed job" offers or anything that charges job seekers.
We check every sponsor ourselves before anything goes live. A sponsor must meet all of these:
- Never charges applicants, learners or job seekers any fee, deposit or "admin" cost.
- Is a registered organisation we can verify, and accredited (SETA, QCTO or DHET) where it offers training.
- The opportunity is real, current and has a named contact and physical address.
- Is not a loan, get-rich, pyramid, gambling, dating or "work from home" offer.
- Advert copy is honest: no guaranteed jobs, and nothing that looks like a government department.
