Remote work is more common in technology than in any other South African sector.

·List all relevant certifications on your CV including Microsoft, AWS, Cisco, and CompTIA credentials with their expiry dates.

·Government IT roles at senior level often require SITA (State Information Technology Agency) familiarity and knowledge of the Government IT Infrastructure Framework.
