5 local job sites to help you get a start in the working world

South Africa has one of the highest unemployment stats in the world with young people between the ages of 18 and 35 making up most of those numbers. Finding a job after high school or tertiary is harder than it was 10 years ago as the working world becomes harder to break into. To help learners and graduates find and apply for jobs that are suitable for them, we have compiled a list of some handy job sites in South Africa.
