Top 4 Job Portals in Africa
4 Job Portals that are increasing access to information about jobs across Africa
In today’s contemporary Africa, the trend has evolved from traditional methods of disseminating information about employment opportunities, such as visiting job centres, searching for vacancies in newspapers and physically handing CVs to potential employers, to embracing digital methods of job searching, in the form of job portals. With the advent of artificial intelligence, this has eliminated the challenge of the number of jobs that job seekers had access to, as the traditional methods publish very limited jobs and target specific sectors, to presenting job seekers with a wide array of job listings, all on one platform.

Amongst such inventions is the creation of Job portals to educate and sensitize on the availability of academic and job opportunities for young, vibrant and upcoming leaders, thereby creating a sustainable workforce on the continent.
