Working for the government might not sound like something you should be excited about, but with top paying DPSA vacancies you’ll quickly learn to love your job. Now you have to make sure that you know what vacancies are available, and how to apply.
Vacancies in national and provincial departments are filled by recruiting serving employees or by inviting applications from those who are not employed in the Public Service. Vacancies in senior positions, i.e. the senior management service, must be advertised nationally for recruitment from within and from outside the Public Service.
DPSA Vacancies
As a rule top paying DPSA vacancies are advertised in a Public Service Vacancy Circular compiled and issued weekly by the Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA).
