I’m desperately looking for a holiday job on either a part-time or full-time basis. I’ve worked in retail, in a restaurant environment and also doing admin, therefore my skills are relatively versatile. I have my own transport as well.

Hey how long does it normally take for the employers to get back at the job proposals
Comment made by John on Jun 10th 2014 at 6:51 pm: Reply
Leeroy, most of our jobs require a fast response, so I would say within 2-3 days. Unfortunately some employers never reply, a pain I know, but sorry you will have to get used to it. I do not like it either! John.

I was just wondering if job opportunities are also available to students in high school.

The option to upload a CV/cover letter lists only image formats under the file types that the browser window is looking for, this would explain why so many people are having issues uploading their CVs/cover letters

Thanks David – let me check that… however we get very few students who cannot load CV and photo and I have uploaded my own many times to check .. I rather expect it is browser or they are using cellphone (which should work, but doesn’t always)… anyway, I will check! J.

while we’re on topic here, you might want to correct the typo “Reecnt” photograph instead of “Recent” by the upload photograph button

Corrected spelling, added doc and docx files, hope all is now good! Thanks for the feedback! Why not apply for the Cape Town Web dev job! work from home R100 per hour!

30,000+ other students disagree … try harder! Make sure you are not trying to upload via a phone .. off course we can have issues depending on the model/make. Use a PC and a word document or TXT file and it will be cool!

I’m an 18year old student. I’m an undergraduate and looking for december holiday jobs. It would much help me to have work experience at a very early age. I do understand that having wor experience also helps with applying for tertiary education. I’m very keen and can work underpressure. I do believe that I have the ability to follow instructions and can be a leader and a follower.
