FNB FirstJob Learner: Opportunity Details

Apply before 20 November 2026: the official advertisement states that applications will not be accepted on the closing date or afterwards.

What Does the Programme Involve?

The successful learner will complete the requirements of a registered qualification while gaining experience through research, analysis, administration, process and project tasks. Additional work-related training will be provided as required.

Balancing these responsibilities requires organisation. Applicants should be prepared to manage study commitments alongside assigned work, ask questions when instructions are unclear, and use feedback to improve.

Minimum Requirements and Programme Details

The accessible official listing does not specify an age limit, minimum school qualification, programme duration or stipend. Applicants should check the full recruitment page and application questions for eligibility requirements before submitting. R54660 is the job reference number, not a salary amount.

How to Prepare a Strong Application

Tailor your CV to show your readiness to learn and contribute in a professional environment. Useful examples could include:

• School or college projects involving research, calculations or presentations.

• Volunteering or community activities that demonstrate responsibility.

• Customer-facing experience that shows patience and communication skills.

• Computer skills you can confidently use.

• Examples of meeting deadlines and working with others.

If you have limited employment experience, explain what you contributed to projects or activities. Specific examples give recruiters more useful information than broad statements such as “hardworking” or “a team player”.

Keep an updated CV and your relevant qualification documents available, and upload the documents requested by the application portal.
