Some organisations will recruit directly through their Human Resources Department, whereas others will rely on external recruitment agencies. Most job advertisement will provide the following information:
  • An overview of the position
  • Position requirements, including qualifications, experience and skills
  • Contact person and contact details
  • How to submit your application
  • Closing date
  • What to include in your application
  • An overview of the organisation ( if the position is advertised directly by the organisation).

To develop a successful application you will need to analyse the advertisement in detail and tailor your application in response to the information listed. It is important to clarify any queries or uncertainties regarding any aspects of the advertisement with the listed contact person.
