SA Career Guide

You’ve Passed Your Trade Test. Now Wait. Possibly for Years. The Red Seal Scandal That Nobody in Government Wants to Talk About!
Qualified. Capable. And stuck waiting for a certificate, while job opportunities disappear.
Imagine training for four years. Early mornings, physical labour, classroom theory, practical assessments, and the kind of accumulated knowledge that only comes from hours of hands-on work. Then imagine sitting for your trade test, the culmination of everything and passing.
That moment should be the beginning of a career. Instead, for thousands of South African artisans, it becomes the beginning of a waiting game that can stretch for months, and in too many cases, years.
For far too many artisans, it simply does not arrive. This is the reality for thousands of South African artisans right now.
