The National Youth Development Agency is calling all unemployed graduates between the ages of 18 and 35 to register on their JOBS database. If you are struggling to find a job; have done a learnership or a skills development programme and things aren't moving for you or if you are a matriculant, then JOBS can help you.
JOBS, which is short for Job and Opportunities Seekers' Database, is a free online database and is part of the Unemployed Graduates Initiative, which was launched in December 2005.
Criteria
Graduates must meet the following criteria:
- unemployed South African citizens between the ages of 18 and 35 years
- graduated with a three-year qualification (national diploma or a university degree) in any field of study
- graduated with a postgraduate qualification (BTech, honours degree, masters degree or PhD) in any field of study.

JOBS have received many requests from employers for people with disabilities. So, if you are a person with a disability and want to be considered for a job, you are also welcome to register on the JOBS database.
