What is the DPSA vacancy circular?
The Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) collects vacancies from national and provincial government departments and publishes them in the weekly Public Service Vacancy Circular, usually on Fridays. One circular can hold hundreds of posts, from general workers and admin clerks to nurses, engineers and directors.
How to apply for DPSA vacancies
Apply directly to the department in the advert, not to the DPSA. Send a completed and signed new Z83 form with a detailed CV, quote the reference number, and make sure it arrives before the closing date. Use our Z83 form filler, CV fit check and free job alerts to apply faster.
