Applications must be submitted with two (2) attachments: 1. A Z83 Form (2021 version), obtainable from the DPSA website (Z83 editable) and 2. A recently updated comprehensive Curriculum Vitae. If either or all of these two attachments are not submitted, the applicant’s application will be disqualified. Each post advert must be accompanied by its own application form for employment and must be fully completed, initialed and signed by the applicant. Applications received after the closing date will not be considered. Only shortlisted candidates will be required to submit certified copies of qualifications obtained and other related documents on or before the day of the interview, following communication from Human Resources and will be subjected to verification by the South African Qualifications Authority. Candidates in possession of a foreign qualification must also provide an evaluation certificate issued by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA), at own expense. Failure to submit the requested documents will result in the application not being considered further. Due to the anticipated large volume of responses, correspondence will be limited to shortlisted candidates only. All shortlisted candidates shall undertake two pre-entry assessments. One will be a practical exercise to determine a candidate’s suitability based on the post’s technical and generic requirements and the other will be an integrity (ethical conduct) assessment. After the pre-entry assessments, an oral interview will be conducted. Suitable candidates will be subjected to personnel suitability checks (criminal record, citizenship, credit record checks, qualification verification and employment verification). By responding to the advertisement, applicants consent to the collection, processing and storing of their Personal Information in accordance with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) Act No. 4 of 2013. Candidates will therefore be required to give consent in terms of the POPI Act in order for the Department to conduct the verifications. Information will be used for the purpose of recruitment only and more specifically for the purpose of the position/vacancy you have applied for and will not be shared with third parties without prior consent, unless required by law. All applicants must declare any conflict or perceived conflict of interest and must disclose membership on Boards and directorships associated with. If you have not been contacted within six (6) months of the closing date, please accept that your application was unsuccessful. The submitted CVs will be destroyed as legislated in the National Archives Act. In the event that your application is unsuccessful, the Department will retain your personal information only for audit purposes as required by policies. All the information requested now or during the process is required for recruitment purposes. Failure to provide the requested information will result in your application not being considered further. The Department reserves the right not to make an appointment to the advertised post(s). The successful candidate must disclose particulars of all registrable financial interests and sign an employment contract within one month from the date of assumption of duty. A Performance Agreement must be concluded and signed within three months from the date of assumption of duty.

All shortlisted candidates for SMS posts will be subjected to a technical exercise and interview. Following the technical exercise and interview, a maximum of three (3) SMS candidates will undergo psychometric assessments to assess cognitive capabilities, behavioural preferences, emotional intelligence, and integrity.
