How to apply for this job

Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: loss prevention or investigation course certificates plus matric certificate.
Use the form on this page. It takes about two minutes and you don't need to upload anything yet.
Keep your phone on. Shortlisted applicants are contacted by call, SMS or WhatsApp within 9 working days.

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

Tips to get shortlisted

Show you know the legal limits of search and arrest. A single unlawful arrest can cost a store badly, so they will ask about it.
Keep your appearance low-key for the interview. Detectives need to blend in with shoppers.
