SASSA Invites suitably qualified applicants to apply for their Internship Programme Vacancies. The closing date for applications is the 17th October 2025.
What SASSA Is Offering
SASSA (the South African Social Security Agency) wants fresh talent to jumpstart their careers. They’re looking for unemployed graduates who want to work in five different teams. If you’re between 18 and 35, a South African citizen, and have the right degree, you could be one of the interns.
