Free online job advertising for South African NPO's, government and educational institution

South African Job Portal, Jobs.co.za, today announces its promise to provide free online job advertising to benefit Non-profit Organisations Charities, Community Services, Government and Educational Institutions as its investment in social responsibility.

While unemployment remains the greatest economic challenge facing South Africa, significant progress has been made in job creation. According to Trevor Manualís speech, delivered on 21s October 2008, more funds will be injected over the next 3 years with the objective of reaching a projected target of creating a total of 5 Million jobs by the year 2014.

Gillian Meier, CEO of Jobs.co.za comments; ìJobs.co.za is in a unique position to respond to the challenge of unemployment by providing extended reach in promoting these job opportunities to South African internet users.î Jobs.co.za has recently taken a decision to promote job vacancies for free, to qualifying institutions, in exchange for acknowledgement of the sponsorship on their websites.

Only South African institutions that operate an existing website containing the following domain name extensions will be eligible to apply to advertise their job posts for free on Jobs.co.za:

.gov.za - South African governmental department or organisation within the Government / SITA.
.org.za - South African non-commercial organisations, including but not limited to charities, NGOs, Section 21 companies, trade and industry associations, trade unions, political parties and religious organisations.

To further streamline the recruitment process, Jobs.co.za will as far as possible, attempt to automatically populate its Job Portal with job content from qualifying institutions however, institutions will also have the ability to load their job adverts directly themselves.
