This checklist: https://qualifyafrica.com/o/takealot-software-engineer-scala-2026
Built only from what the listing states. Lines marked (our advice) are ours.
The application takes real work, by our reading.

1. CHECK YOURSELF AGAINST WHAT THEY ASK
[ ] Based in South Africa, where the role is located
[ ] Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Engineering or a related field, or related experience in its absence
[ ] At least 5 years of experience writing robust, efficient production code
[ ] Software engineering skills (Scala, Java or C#, SQL, Linux)

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
