What an administration clerk actually does
SetaJobs’ guide to clerical and business administration posts in South Africa, written for someone applying for their first one.
Employers screen on computer literacy, written language and the neatness of your record-keeping. Expect a practical exercise: draft a memorandum, capture a set of entries, or sort a batch of documents into a file plan. In the public service the application itself is the first screen — a fully completed, signed Z83 with the documents listed, submitted by the closing date to the exact address given. Incomplete applications are disqualified without being read.

What this kind of post involves
A permanent post is ongoing employment with no end date, carrying full benefits and, in the public service, a defined salary level with annual notch progression. These are advertised competitively and the selection process is considerably more formal than for programme placements.
How permanent posts work: the week, the qualification and where it leads →Watch out for this
The screening is mechanical and happens before anyone reads your CV: the advert’s own application instructions are applied as written, and an incomplete or unsigned form is discarded whatever the rest of the application says.
