Helping South Africans Find, Understand and Explore Career Opportunities
SEND CV is an independent South African information platform created to help people find and better understand career opportunities, job advertisements, learnerships, internships, bursaries, apprenticeships, skills development programmes and other education-related opportunities.
Our purpose is to make important career and education information easier to find, understand and use. We aim to help job seekers, students, graduates, school leavers and other South Africans navigate information that may otherwise be scattered across employer websites, government announcements, educational institutions and other sources.
We believe that access to clear information can help people make better-informed decisions about their education, skills development and career journeys.
Who We Are
SEND CV is an independent online information resource focused on career awareness, education opportunities, skills development and employment-related information in South Africa.
We publish articles and guides that explain available opportunities, eligibility requirements, application procedures, closing dates and other relevant details when this information is available from the original source.
Our aim is to make information more accessible, particularly for people who may be unfamiliar with application processes or unsure where to begin looking for opportunities.
SEND CV is an informational platform. We help readers discover and understand opportunities; we do not act as the employer, training provider or organisation responsible for selecting applicants.
SEND CV Is Not a Recruitment Agency or Hiring Platform
SEND CV does not recruit, employ, place or select candidates. Our website exists to provide information and help people find the appropriate official sources for opportunities.
To make our role clear, SEND CV:
- Is not a recruitment agency or employment placement company.
- Is not a government department or Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA).
- Is not an employer or an official hiring platform.
- Does not conduct recruitment or interviews on behalf of employers.
- Does not select candidates for jobs, learnerships, internships or bursaries.
- Does not award bursaries, approve funding or provide accredited training.
- Does not guarantee employment, admission, funding or acceptance into any programme.
- Does not represent an organisation featured in an article unless a specific relationship is explicitly disclosed and verified.
We publish information to help readers identify opportunities and understand how to pursue them.
When an opportunity interests you, you should follow the instructions provided by the responsible organisation and submit your application through its official application channel.
What We Publish
SEND CV covers a range of opportunities and information relevant to South Africans.
Jobs and vacancies
We share information about advertised vacancies across different sectors, industries and levels of experience. Where details are available, our articles explain the stated requirements, location, responsibilities, closing date and application process.
Learnerships and apprenticeships
We explain learnerships and apprenticeship opportunities that may help eligible applicants gain practical experience, occupational skills and workplace exposure.
Our content aims to clarify entry requirements, programme duration, stipends where officially stated, and how to apply.
Internships and graduate programmes
We publish information about internships, work-integrated learning opportunities and graduate programmes to help students and graduates understand possible routes into the workplace.
Bursaries and educational funding
We share information about bursaries, scholarships and other funding opportunities, including published eligibility criteria, application requirements and deadlines.
Education and skills development
We provide general information about training pathways, qualifications, skills programmes and other educational opportunities that may support career development.
Application guidance and career information
We aim to help readers understand application procedures, prepare the information commonly requested by organisations and identify the official sources they need to consult.
Our coverage is intended to inform and guide readers, not to replace instructions from the organisation responsible for an opportunity.
How We Prepare Our Content
We recognise that job seekers and students may rely on published information when deciding where to apply or how to plan their next steps.
For this reason, we aim to make our content clear, useful and responsible.
Our editorial approach includes the following principles.
Source awareness: We aim to identify the employer, institution, government department or organisation responsible for an opportunity and refer readers to its official announcement or website where available.
Accuracy: We aim to check important details, including eligibility requirements, application instructions, deadlines, locations and published stipends or funding amounts, against reliable sources.
Clear explanations: We aim to explain information in straightforward language so that readers can understand what an opportunity involves and what they need to do next.
Originality: We aim to provide useful context and explanations rather than simply repeat an announcement without helping readers understand it.
Responsible headlines: We avoid presenting unconfirmed opportunities as official vacancies or suggesting that employment, funding or selection is guaranteed.
Corrections and updates: When we identify a material error or receive credible information that an article is outdated, we aim to review it and make appropriate corrections or updates.
These principles describe our editorial commitments. The level of verification possible may vary by article, and readers should confirm current details with the organisation responsible for each opportunity.
Our Sources and Verification Approach
Whenever possible, we prioritise primary sources for career and education information.
These may include:
- Official employer career websites.
- Government department websites and published notices.
- SETA websites and official programme announcements.
- University and TVET college websites.
- Official bursary, internship, learnership and apprenticeship notices.
- Other relevant institutional or programme websites.
We aim to distinguish confirmed information from general explanations and avoid inventing application links, deadlines, salary amounts, stipends or eligibility requirements.
If an opportunity cannot be independently confirmed through an appropriate source, we should communicate that limitation clearly rather than imply that it has been officially verified.
Because opportunities can change or close after publication, readers should always check the latest announcement before applying.
Protecting Readers From Misleading Opportunities
We understand that people searching for jobs, learnerships and bursaries may encounter fraudulent advertisements and individuals who exploit their need for opportunities.
We encourage readers to:
- Check whether an opportunity appears on the official website of the organisation offering it.
- Verify the closing date, eligibility criteria and application instructions.
- Be cautious of anyone promising guaranteed employment, selection or funding in exchange for payment.
- Avoid sharing banking PINs, passwords or unnecessary sensitive personal information with unverified individuals.
- Confirm questionable requests for payment directly with the responsible organisation.
- Use verified application channels whenever possible.
SEND CV does not sell job placements or guarantee successful applications. Publication of an opportunity on our website should not be treated as a guarantee that the opportunity is genuine, remains open or is suitable for every reader.
Readers should independently verify important information before providing documents or personal details.
Independence and Transparency
SEND CV operates as an independent information platform. Unless explicitly disclosed and verified for a particular activity, we are not affiliated with, endorsed by or acting as an official representative of the employers, government departments, SETAs, colleges, universities or other organisations mentioned in our articles.
Mentioning an organisation or sharing information about its opportunities does not mean that the organisation sponsors, approves or endorses SEND CV.
Our purpose is to help readers access information and understand the next steps. Decisions about recruitment, eligibility, admissions, training, funding and selection remain with the organisations responsible for those processes.
If we publish sponsored or paid content, any material relationship should be disclosed clearly to readers.
Our Commitment to Readers
We want SEND CV to be a useful starting point for people who are exploring career options, searching for opportunities or planning their next educational step.
We aim to provide information that is:
- Easy to understand.
- Relevant to South African readers.
- Clear about application requirements and next steps.
- Responsible about what has and has not been verified.
- Transparent about the distinction between our role and that of the organisation offering an opportunity.
We recognise that no information website can guarantee a particular career outcome. Our responsibility is to help readers understand the information available to them and direct them towards the appropriate sources for confirmation.
Editorial Accountability and Corrections
Accuracy is an ongoing responsibility. Where readers identify an incorrect deadline, broken application link, outdated requirement or other factual concern, we welcome reports that can help us review the information.
Please include the article title, its URL, the specific detail in question and a reliable source where possible.
We aim to investigate credible reports and correct material errors when appropriate. Readers can consult our Corrections Policy and Editorial Policy for more information about our publishing standards.

Our Mission
Our mission is to make career, education and skills development information easier for South Africans to find and understand.
We want to help people explore their options, learn about opportunities and identify the appropriate next steps without confusion about who is offering the opportunity or where an application should be submitted.
