SA Recruiters
Frequently Asked Questions
SA Recruiters is a South African recruitment directory and jobs platform. We help job seekers discover vacancies, recruitment agencies and candidate resources, while giving agencies and employers a place to share opportunities.
Safety first: Never pay someone just to apply for a job. Verify the organisation and application instructions before sharing personal documents.
Using SA Recruiters
What is SA Recruiters?
SA Recruiters is a South African recruitment directory and jobs platform for discovering vacancies, recruitment agencies and candidate resources.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Browsing public vacancies, exploring agencies and reading candidate resources are free. Optional account features include saved jobs across devices and the CV Box.
How does an agency or vacancy get listed?
Agencies, employers and community members can suggest information through the app. Our team reviews submissions before publication and may add or correct details. A listing is not a guarantee that a role is still open or that an organisation is endorsed.
What does the “Verified” badge mean?
It means SA Recruiters checked selected information at the time of review, such as an agency or employer contact detail. It does not guarantee that a vacancy is current or that an organisation is suitable for you.
Applications and saved vacancies
How do I apply for a vacancy?
Open the vacancy card and use the application link, email address or phone number shown by the relevant agency or employer. Verify the destination before sending personal documents. The agency or employer usually handles the application.
Can I save vacancies to apply later?
Yes. Tap the bookmark icon on a vacancy card. Saved vacancies appear in the Saved tab and can remain available on your device offline. Google sign-in can support saved-list access across devices.
How do I report incorrect information?
Use Report a problem from the app menu or the report action on a listing where shown. Tell us which listing is affected and what needs attention. Do not send passwords, identity numbers or banking information.
Offline mode and data
Does the app work offline?
Yes, after the app has loaded successfully once. The installed PWA caches the app shell and stores previously loaded directory data on your device. Offline mode cannot fetch new vacancies, submit forms, sign in, send alerts or open external application websites; those features resume when you are online.
How is my data handled?
You can browse as a guest. If you use Google sign-in, CV Box registration, saved jobs, reports or employer forms, we handle the information needed for that feature. Private notes and offline data remain in browser storage on your device. Read the Privacy Policy for full details.
CV Box and safety
What is the CV Box?
The CV Box lets job seekers create an optional profile that can help employers discover their skills, experience, sector and location. Your public profile does not expose your phone number, email address or CV as direct contact details.
How can I stay safe when applying?
Check the employer or agency, read the instructions carefully and be cautious with unexpected messages. Never pay a fee to apply, never share passwords or banking PINs, and do not send identity documents until you have independently verified who is requesting them and why.
