Applying, step by step

Make sure the role, the hours and working in Bellville really suit you before you apply.
Get these ready, because shortlisted people are asked for them straight away: civil engineering degree certificate, copy of ID with a commissioner of oaths stamp plus ECSA certificate of registration.
Fill in the short form below with your name and a phone number you actually answer.
If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 8 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 Bellville.

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

Say whether you have done resident engineer work. It is a separate skill and often in short supply.
Mention the design software you use and the codes you design to, so the reviewer does not have to guess.
