What to Ensure in Your Application

Use the correct application form (in many adverts for government posts, this is the new Z83 form). Attach a detailed CV.
Ensure that all fields are completed fully and that your documents are clear and legible.
Quote the correct Reference No. and Position Name in your email.
Attach certified copies of all qualifications and driver’s licence (if required) when asked (typically for shortlisted candidates).
Ensure your email subject line is clearly labelled (e.g., “Application for Ref SAS LP02/12/24 – Manager Supply Chain Management”).
Submit before the closing date — late applications are typically not considered.
If you haven’t heard back within 90 days of the closing date, assume your application was unsuccessful (as per common public‑service practise).

Tips to Strengthen Your Application

Tailor your CV and cover letter to highlight relevant experience and skills (i.e., for SCM, highlight procurement, logistics, supply‑chain work; for Grants Administrator, highlight administration, grants processing or social‑services work).
Emphasise your computer literacy (mention specific systems or software you’re familiar with) and your valid driver’s licence if required.
For entry‑level posts (Document Management Administrator or Administration Clerk) emphasise your willingness to learn, organisational skills, reliability and ability to handle tasks efficiently.
Proof‑read carefully to avoid errors — government agencies view professionalism highly.
Make sure your email and attachments (CV, application form) are well‑named and in a common format (PDF or Word) to avoid compatibility issues.
Respect the closing date—21 December 2024. Don’t wait until last minute.
