SA Youth is completely free for employers. Our only request is simple: Please provide recruitment feedback—whether you hired or not—within 4 weeks of the opportunity advert’s closing date.
Our ability to keep this service free depends on receiving your feedback, as it helps us demonstrate to our funders that we are creating meaningful employment opportunities for South Africa’s youth.
By sharing your recruitment feedback, you're not only keeping SA Youth free to use, but you're contributing towards decreasing our youth unemployment rate. Additionally, you're keeping talent that were not recruited informed and motivated.
