Fill in a form and watch a clean, one-page CV build itself alongside it, laid out the way a screening administrator reads one. Two layouts — skills first for school leavers, experience first for anyone with work history — a readiness checklist that names what is still missing, and a phrase bank for the moment you are staring at an empty box. Everything stays in your browser, and the finished CV saves as a PDF through your phone or computer.
Who it is for: School leavers, learnership and internship applicants, first-time job seekers
Complete the government application form without errors
The Z83 is compulsory for public service posts and is also the most common reason an application is disqualified before anyone reads it. This walks through the form part by part, explains what each field actually wants, and ticks off the checks that decide whether it is accepted — with your progress saved so you can finish it over more than one sitting.
Who it is for: Anyone applying for a government or municipal post
Data capturer, admin clerk and registry clerk posts commonly screen on typing speed, and some ask for a typing certificate. Test yourself in 60 seconds on realistic office material, see your net words per minute and accuracy, and read your result against what South African adverts actually ask for — plus how to practise and where a real certificate comes from.

Why these three, and why they are free
Most applications for learnerships, internships and entry-level posts in South Africa are not lost on ability. They are lost on the paperwork around it: a Z83 filled in wrongly, a CV that buries the qualification the advert asked for, a typing requirement nobody checked before applying. Those are all fixable in an evening, and none of them should cost money.
Each tool here runs entirely in your browser. Your CV, your Z83 ticks and your typing score are stored on your own device and never sent to us, which means we cannot lose them, sell them or hand them to anyone. It also means they will not follow you to another phone — so download or print anything you want to keep.
