Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Umlazi really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified ID and a recent proof of address, a CV with any delivery or courier work plus Code 8 or motorbike licence copy.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
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 Umlazi.

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

Say you have a smartphone and know delivery apps. Most courier jobs now run through an app and training time is short.
If you have a clean driving record, write "no accidents, no traffic fines" plainly. It is what recruiters look for.
