Jobs, jobs, jobs: 20 positions open in the Western Cape that require only Matric

Vusi Adonis|Published 2 years ago

Work can be hard to come by when you don’t have a qualification or experience. The Western Cape has 20 openings for people with only Matric. Picture: Pixabay

Johannesburg – With a large number of young people unemployed there are two factors that seem to exacerbate the problem – qualifications and experience.
