Success Guide
This is a solid opportunity if you are a qualified Boilermaker looking for steady workshop and plant work in Limpopo. When you apply, make your trade test certificate and your 3 to 5 years of post trade experience impossible to miss on your CV. List the welding processes you are comfortable with, like MIG, TIG and Stick, and mention any exposure to conveyors, boilers or steam systems because the employer sees that as a plus. Be ready to talk through reading drawings and building complex shapes such as square to round or lobster back work.

A clean, short CV with your licence and own transport clearly noted will help you stand out for this one.
