How2Apply recruits for this position on behalf of hiring employers around Richards Bay; 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.

How to stand out

If you have a clean driving record, write "no accidents, no traffic fines" plainly. It is what recruiters look for.
For owner-driver jobs, list your vehicle's make, year and load size. They hire the vehicle as much as the driver.
