2. WHAT TO GET READY

In their words: "Application on the group's own portal, choosing Project 2 and the PhD application; email applications are not accepted"

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)
- On the date, the listing says: No closing date. Applications are reviewed until excellent candidates are found. The stated start date, 1 October 2026, has passed, so a place may fill soon.

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
