The application takes real work, by our reading.

1. CHECK YOURSELF AGAINST WHAT THEY ASK
[ ] Based in Cape Town, South Africa, where the role is located
[ ] Proficiency in both Mandarin and English, spoken and written
[ ] Bachelor's Degree or Advanced Diploma in Marketing, Business, Commerce or a related field, or a minimum of 5 years account management experience in its absence
[ ] Minimum 3 years experience in advertising sales and/or account management with a track record of meeting revenue targets

2. WHAT TO GET READY
An online form; it names no documents. Some forms do not save as you go, so set aside time to do it in one sitting.
In their words: "Apply through the Greenhouse application form linked on the posting."

3. DATES
- No closing date is stated.
- Openings with no closing date can close once they have enough people, so sooner is safer. (our advice)

A job never asks you to pay to apply. A listing that charges shows the fee above, and it is paid only to the organisation. If anyone asks for money any other way, stop, and tell us: hello@qualifyafrica.com
