How to apply
Email a completed Z83 and detailed CV, in PDF format up to 10 MB, to LAOrecruit91@nda.gov.za. Hand delivery is available at Agriculture Place, 20 Steve Biko Street, Arcadia, Pretoria, 0002.
Certified supporting documents are requested from shortlisted candidates. Enquiries: Mr R Tuckeldoe, 012 319 8496. Check the advert’s employment-equity targets.
Check that your qualification is specifically within Agriculture at the stated NQF level. A general administration qualification should not be assumed to meet this vacancy’s requirement. Your CV should clearly document at least two years of relevant land or land-reform administration, with accurate dates and responsibilities. Explain relevant farm, lease, records or land-management work without disclosing confidential client information. Submit separate applications if applying for other posts and avoid duplicate submissions for this one. The notice says technical or server delays do not excuse late applications. Certified supporting documents and foreign qualification evaluations are requested when shortlisted. Practical and integrity assessments, reference checks and vetting form part of recruitment.
Prepare a clear application
For the Agriculture Land Administrative Officer application, start by comparing your qualifications and experience with each requirement in the official advert. Your CV should make the relevant evidence easy to find. Use accurate dates, clear job titles and specific examples of work you actually completed. Never claim a qualification, licence, professional membership or responsibility you do not hold.
Where you describe experience, explain the task, the tools or processes you used and the result. A short, concrete example is more helpful than a long list of personal qualities. Check that your telephone number and email address are current and that any referees you list can be contacted.
Before sending, open the final attachment and check that every page is readable, correctly oriented and complete. Make sure the vacancy reference in your application matches the Agriculture Land Administrative Officer advert. Keep a copy of the documents and evidence of submission. Submit early enough to address a rejected email or unreadable file; preparing an application is not the same as successfully submitting it.
