Makoya publishes information and guidance about employment opportunities, learnerships, internships, bursaries, training programmes, skills development and related career topics relevant to South Africa.

2. Nature of Our Service

Makoya is an independent information and guidance platform. It is not an employer, recruitment agency or hiring platform.

Unless a specific service is expressly identified otherwise, we do not accept job applications on behalf of employers, conduct recruitment assessments, select candidates, arrange employment or guarantee placement in any opportunity.

Information published on Makoya is intended to help readers understand opportunities and locate relevant official sources.

We aim to publish useful and accurate information. However, vacancies, programme requirements, application links, deadlines, stipends and other details may change after publication.

We do not warrant that all information is complete, current or error-free at all times.

You are responsible for checking important details with the organisation offering the opportunity before making decisions or submitting an application.

4. Applications and Recruitment Decisions

Applications must be submitted through the channel specified by the responsible employer, institution or programme provider.

Makoya does not control third-party recruitment decisions, eligibility assessments, interview arrangements, application outcomes or payment arrangements.

Meeting published requirements does not guarantee that an application will be accepted or that a candidate will be selected.

5. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to external websites operated by employers, government departments, universities, training providers, advertisers or other organisations.

We do not control all external websites and are not responsible for their content, availability, privacy practices, security or subsequent changes.

An external link does not automatically establish endorsement, sponsorship, partnership or an employment relationship.

Users should independently assess external websites before sharing personal information or taking action.

You may access and share links to our publicly available content for lawful purposes. Reproducing substantial portions of our original material, republishing it commercially or presenting it as your own may require permission.

Third-party names, trademarks, logos and materials remain subject to the rights of their respective owners. Their appearance on Makoya does not imply ownership or affiliation.

Nothing in these terms overrides rights or exceptions provided by applicable law.

8. Advertising and Commercial Relationships

The website may display advertisements or other commercial content, depending on its configuration.

Where applicable, paid or sponsored material should be identified appropriately. Advertisements do not automatically constitute recommendations or guarantees by Makoya.

Users should assess advertised products, services and external destinations independently.
