Three steps. No paying to apply, no messy uploads, no waiting in silence.

    Build one free CV

    Answer a few simple questions. We turn your answers into a clean, professional CV.

  2. 2

    Apply in one tap

    Your CV is saved in your account. After that, applying for a job takes one tap.

  3. 3

    Hear back

    Employers must reply to everyone who applies. You can see where each application stands.

Your free CV

One CV for every job

Build it once, for free. Every employer gets the same clean CV, so it is easy to read for people and for company software. Update it any time.

Why you hear nothing back, and how we fix it

Why it happens

Your CV may never reach a person

At many big companies, software reads your CV before a person does. It looks for the words in the job advert. If it cannot find them, your CV can be set aside before anyone sees your name.

Most of the time, it was never about you. It was the CV.

Our rule

Every employer must reply

On Next Job, employers must answer everyone who applies within 7 days, even if the answer is no. If they do not, their job comes down.

So you always know where you stand.

Questions people ask

What is the free CV builder?

Instead of uploading a file, you build one CV right here, for free. You answer simple questions and we turn your answers into a clean CV that people and company software can read. It is saved in your account, so you can apply for any job in one tap.

Will an employer actually get back to me?

Yes. Employers on Next Job must answer everyone who applies within 7 days, even if the answer is no. If they do not, their job comes down. You can see where each application stands in your account.

Why do my job applications usually get ignored?

Often it is not about you. At many big companies, software reads your CV before a person does. It looks for the words in the job advert. If your CV does not have them, it can be set aside before anyone sees your name. The CV you build with us is made to be easy to read.

All kinds. General worker, driver, cleaner and warehouse jobs sit alongside admin, sales, accounting and management jobs, in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria and the rest of South Africa.

How much does it cost a company to post a job?

Nothing. Posting a job on Next Job is free. A business creates an account, posts the job, and it goes live once our team has checked it. If you want more help, we also offer paid services like recruitment, temporary staff and merchandising.
