Shortlisted candidates must bring certified copies of their Identity Document, Grade 12 Certificate, highest required qualifications, driver’s license (if needed), and service certificates for senior management experience to Human Resources on or before the interview date.

Before appointment, complete the Nyukela Programme: Pre-entry Certificate to SMS, an online course available at https://www.thensg.gov.za/training-course/sms-pre-entry-programme/. No appointment will occur without completing this and providing proof.
All shortlisted candidates, including those for SMS roles, must complete two pre-entry assessments: a practical one and an integrity (Ethical Conduct) assessment. These scores will be used in the interview process to evaluate suitability based on technical and generic requirements.
