How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Soweto; applications go into our talent pool and shortlisted candidates are introduced directly.

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.

Before you hit apply

For owner-driver jobs, list your vehicle's make, year and load size. They hire the vehicle as much as the driver.
Say you have a smartphone and know delivery apps. Most courier jobs now run through an app and training time is short.
