How to Apply
Apply online only, through the Gauteng E-Recruitment portal (jobs.gauteng.gov.za). Hand-delivered, faxed and emailed applications are not accepted, and nobody should ask you to pay anything to apply.
Your application needs a fully completed, signed new Z83 form (get it from any public service department or www.dpsa.gov.za/documents) and an up-to-date, detailed CV. Fill in Parts A, C and D of the Z83, write the post reference number on your application, and leave the professional-registration question blank if it doesn't apply to you. No new Z83 or no detailed CV means automatic disqualification.
Don't upload certified copies yet. HR will only ask shortlisted candidates for certified documents (not older than 6 months) on or before the interview day. Foreign qualifications must come with a SAQA evaluation certificate.
Before any appointment the hospital runs suitability checks: criminal record, citizenship, qualification verification, company directorship, social media, financial record and references. The recommended candidate may also go through medical surveillance under the OHS Act. The department can decide not to fill the post.
