Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Johannesburg CBD really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: a CV naming the level of executives you supported, two references from executives you worked for plus your PA or secretarial qualification.
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 8 working days.

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

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

Mention a problem you solved before your boss knew about it; that story wins PA interviews.
State whom you supported (for example "PA to the MD of a 300-person firm") in each job heading.
