If you plan on applying for a job in a government department then you should know how to fill in a Z83 form, here are a few tips on how to do so.
A Z83 application form is important to an employer as it indicates whether an applicant meets the minimum requirements and qualifications for the job position. This form is reviewed by the selected shortlisting committee.
Applicants are encouraged to fill out the Z83 form fully, with all the relevant information to ensure that the application moves forward in the selection process.
Here are a few tips for filling out the Z83 form:
- Get the Z83 form, which is available at any South African National, Provincial and Local Government office and government department’s websites.
- Take some time to read the application from carefully so that you can clearly understand all the questions that you have answer.
- If you struggle to answer some questions then you can ask someone close to you for assistance or visit the nearest Labour Centre in your area at the Department of Employment and Labour to get assistance from an Employment Counsellor.
- Ensure that the form is completed neatly and fully so that the employer is able to easily read through it.
- Follow the instructions on the Z83 form and only attach the documents that they ask for.
- Put the correct reference number for each particular job you have applied for, this will prevent you from being unnecessarily disqualified for such mistakes.
- It is very important that you complete the form fully by signing and dating the application form as failure to do so will result in an immediate disqualification, which means that your application form will not be considered because it has not been authorized by the applicant.
Only applicants with an original ID or passport may apply using this form.
