If the links are not there yet, check again over the next few days instead of sending documents to unofficial sites. The advert does not mention any application fee, so treat requests for payment as a red flag.
What it means for job seekers
- This is a rare chance for ICT, cyber security and health informatics specialists to join a young public agency while its structure is still being filled.
- It is not only for tech staff. Accountants, lawyers, HR officers, supply chain officers, auditors and communications staff are all wanted.
- Entry and support posts such as Digital Health Assistant, Customer Care Assistant, Driver and Office Assistant suit people early in their careers.
- With about three weeks to the deadline, the clearance certificates are the part most likely to hold you up. Start there.
- Apply for the one role that best fits your record. A focused application reads better than several loosely matched ones.
