South Africa’s 30%+ Unemployment Crisis — Why Should Companies Pay to Find Job Seekers?
South Africa faces a staggering unemployment rate of over 30%. Yet, in a country where millions are actively looking for work, companies are still required to pay just to find job seekers.
On one hand, candidates spend countless hours applying to multiple job postings, often receiving no response or even acknowledgment. On the other, businesses — many of them small or growing — are charged simply to access these very candidates.
At MyCVHub, we believe this system is broken.
We’re closing that gap. Instead of charging employers to connect with job seekers, or forcing candidates to endlessly submit applications that go unseen, we’re building a more efficient, fair, and inclusive hiring ecosystem.
