Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Tembisa really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): driver's licence and ID copies plus service record or reference letter from past security work.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
Watch for a call or WhatsApp from How2Apply over the next 9 working days.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Tembisa.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

Tips to get shortlisted

Put your firearm competency and armed response course at the top. Without both, the CV is not read further.
Bring the originals of your certificates to the interview. Armed companies verify them before a shooting test.
