Straight answers

Questions, answered honestly.

What is Sebenza?

Sebenza is a South African national talent platform. Job seekers create a professional profile once and can be found by verified employers across all nine provinces. Employers search live, freshness-weighted profiles by profession, province and skills. It is operated by Yetotec (Pty) Ltd and built POPIA-first.

Is Sebenza free for job seekers?

Yes. Creating a profile, being found, receiving invitations and accepting work are free for job seekers. Sebenza is not an employment agency we never take a fee from your wages.

How do employers find me?

Verified employers search by profession, province and skills. Your public profile shows a redacted name and never shows your contact details, ID number or documents. An employer only reaches you through the platform, with your consent, and every contact reveal is recorded in an audit log you can review.

Do I need matric or a degree to join?

No. Sebenza is for every skill level from general workers, artisans and drivers to graduates and professionals. Current students can register a student profile with their expected completion date. What matters is a truthful profile, not a specific qualification.

How is my personal information protected?

Sebenza is built around POPIA, South Africa's data protection law. You give specific consent for each way your information is used, and you can pause your visibility or withdraw consent at any time. Sensitive fields are encrypted, public pages are redacted, and every access to your personal information is logged.

What does “verified” mean on a profile?

A verification badge means the platform actually verified something for example an employer confirming a work record. Every profile starts as “unverified” and we say so honestly; badges are never bought or assumed. Statistics count a hire only when it is confirmed through the platform.
