Editorial policy

NewGenJobs publishes practical career guidance for South African job seekers. Our goal is to explain confusing processes in clear language and help people make informed decisions.

How we source information

For time-sensitive or regulated topics we prioritise primary sources, including government departments, DPSA, SARS, SAQA, Stats SA and recognised regulatory bodies. We link to sources where they help a reader verify a fact or continue their research.

Review and updates

Articles show an authoring team and publication date. Material facts that can change—such as tax rules, salary scales, form requirements and vacancy processes—are reviewed when official guidance changes. Readers should always follow the instructions in the live vacancy advert.

Independence and limitations

Our guides are educational. They are not legal, tax, financial or recruitment advice, and they do not guarantee an interview or job offer. Where a personal circumstance matters, seek advice from an appropriately qualified professional.

Corrections

If you spot an error or an outdated source, contact us through our contact page. We review substantiated corrections and update material inaccuracies promptly.
