Editorial Policy

This page explains how Impact Career Africa chooses, checks and maintains the opportunities published on this website, so readers can judge for themselves how much to trust what they read here.

Where Our Information Comes From

We publish only opportunities that we can trace to an official source: the official website or careers page of the company, government department, municipality, SETA, university or organisation offering the opportunity, or an official advertisement published by that organisation. We do not copy listings from other blogs, and we do not publish opportunities sent by anonymous third parties without an official source.

What We Check Before Publishing

  • The name of the offering organisation and the official source link;
  • the real requirements (education level, age or citizenship rules where stated);
  • the location and type of opportunity;
  • the closing date, where the official advertisement states one;
  • how applications must be submitted.

If an official advertisement does not state something important, such as a stipend amount, we say it is not stated instead of inventing a figure.

What We Add

Around the verified facts, we add our own original guidance: plain-language explanations of who should apply, the documents usually needed, step-by-step application guidance, and answers to common questions. This added guidance is general information, clearly written by us, and it never replaces the official advertisement.

Corrections and Expiry

Opportunities are removed or marked closed after their closing date passes. If a reader or organisation reports an error, we re-check the official source and correct the post. Material corrections are made as quickly as possible.

Advertising and Independence

This website is supported by advertising. Advertisers have no influence over which opportunities we publish or how we describe them, and sponsored content, if ever published, will always be clearly labelled as such.
