Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Welkom really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: certified copies of your qualifications and academic record plus a short cover letter saying which part of HR interests you.
Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 5 working days.

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

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.

Tips to get shortlisted

If you are a graduate, put your qualification, graduation year and any HR modules at the top of your CV.
Attach your full academic record; HR internships often filter on marks in labour law and HR modules.
