Tackling Unemployment in South Africa

Unemployment, especially among youth, is a severe crisis in South Africa. Christiaan van den Berg, CEO of JobJack, explains that “Six out of 10 job seekers face the choice between job hunting and feeding their families.” JobJack is bridging that gap by offering free, data-light access to job seekers and employers.

With over 3 million registered job seekers and 25,000+ placements, JobJack is connecting people to opportunities and breaking the cycle of poverty. It’s not just about finding jobs—it’s about creating sustainable career paths.
