Interviews at employment agencies

The appointment can be at any thing
from a shack, house, palace
or office block.

You respond to an advertisement in a newspaper,
or from the internet with jobmail, pnet and career junction
that stands in the front line with available positions.

You have to drive to somewhere in Pretoria
or Johannesburg, Midrand, Randfotein or Krugersdorp
to find work in Pretoria or Midrand.

At times there’s something wrong with the directions
and if you do not know the place,
you drive at your own cost totally lost.

At the place a receptionist makes you fill in forms
and let you wait in a very small office,
where the heater behind a closed door tries to fry you.

a Girl with just a metric certificate interviews you,
about your degree/s and experience
and you try to impress her.

At times your photograph is taken
and at times they demand your fingerprints
and you have to sign that Kroll may look at your business.

The agencies demand that Kroll verify
your qualifications, credit worthiness
and see if you have a criminal record.

Certainly people like doctor? Carl Niehaus
that finds doctor’s degrees in lucky packets,
is probably responsible that a person have to go through this hell.

Sometimes lies are told about the available position
to build a data base,
or you have to wait until the client wants to see more people.

If you are lucky a appointment is immediately set,
or your Curriculum Vitae is emailed on
and you are called
for an appointment with the employer.
