driver’s license (if specified as a job requirement), as well as the relevant
highest educational qualifications, on or before the day of the interview.
Applicants who possess (a) foreign
qualification(s), must also submit the
evaluated results of such qualifications, as received from the South African
Qualifications Authority (SAQA); and limited to 2.5MB in size, if emailed
(applicants will submit only when
shortlisted). Should an automated
acknowledgement of receipt not be received when an application is emailed,
this could mean that the application did not reach the Department due to the
size of the attachments. Should this occur,
kindly resend the application in 2 /
3 parts, splitting the attachments accordingly. Shortlisted Candidates will be
subjected to an interview and technical test(s) (which test Candidates’
demonstrated professional and technical
competency against the job
requirements and duties). Candidates potentially considered suitable after the
interview and technical test(s), will be subjected to a competency assessment
(which tests the Candidates’ demonstrated
proficiency in the professional
dimensions attached to the level of the post); employment suitability checks
(credit, criminal, citizenship, employment references and qualification
verifications); and will be required to
complete the online “Pre-entry Certificate
to Senior Management Services” course. The course is available at the
National School of Government (NSG), under the name “Certificate for entry
into the SMS”. Full details can be obtained
