IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ALL APPLICANTS – BRAAMFONTEIN RECRUITMENT & ONBOARDING

We would like to sincerely thank everyone who came through for the Recruitment and Onboarding session in Braamfontein today. The overwhelming turnout truly reflects the urgent need for employment opportunities, and we deeply appreciate the effort many of you made to attend.

Unfortunately, due to the extremely large number of people who arrived including many walk-ins who were not invited the situation became difficult to manage safely. Regrettably, some disruptions occurred on-site, and in the interest of the safety and well-being of all applicants, staff, and security personnel, we have had to make the difficult decision not to take in any additional applicants today, including those who were waiting in line with invitations.

We understand how disappointing and painful this is, especially for those who arrived early and waited patiently. Please know that this decision was not made lightly, and we are truly saddened that we could not assist everyone as planned.

We kindly ask for your understanding and cooperation during this time. Further communication regarding future recruitment processes and opportunities will be shared through our official platforms.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support.
