Make sure the role, the hours and working in Lephalale really suit you before you apply.
Have the following on hand (clear photos on your phone are fine at first): SAPC registration certificate and proof of this year's fees, short list of dispensing systems you have used plus certified matric certificate.

If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 7 working days, usually by phone.

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

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're still a learner, give the name of your training pharmacy and your expected completion date.
Mention your daily script volume, such as "dispensed 150+ scripts a day"; it shows you can handle pressure.
