Applying, step by step

Check you meet the must-haves first; recruiters filter on those before anything else.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: screenshots or a link to a dashboard you built, with real data removed, certification transcripts plus academic record showing statistics or maths modules.
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 9 working days, usually by phone.

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

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

Build one public portfolio dashboard on a South African open data set if you have no work samples to share.
Show a before-and-after, like "replaced a 6-hour manual report with an automatic daily dashboard".
