Applying, step by step

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: SAPC registration certificate and proof of this year's fees plus short list of dispensing systems you have used.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 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 Springs.

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

Write "SAPC Post-Basic" or "SAPC Basic" right next to your name on the CV; this is the first filter.
If you're still a learner, give the name of your training pharmacy and your expected completion date.
