Foreword by the CEO

The Transport Education and Training Authority recognises the development and upskilling of the labour force as one of the key contributors to the growth of the economy. Further, the career guidance and support given to learners in high school throughout the nine provinces of South Africa serves as a strategic drive to create awareness amongst all communities about careers available within the transport sector. The TETA Leaner Guide is developed with the aim of assisting learners in high school make the right career choices, assist those within the post school system make the right career choices, assist the teachers with relevant information

for them to advise learners better in relation to career in transport. The informal conversations we have with learners and teachers alike, gives us an indication that learners and teachers do not have knowledge of the operations of SETAs as well as how to access information and funding opportunities. Our hope is that with this book, all these key strategic people will be able to make use of the book to maximise on the information available which is of benefit to stakeholders,learners and partners.

TETA and its strategic partners will continue to research and identify innovative solutions to alleviate the skills deficit within the transportsector. With the guidance provided by the Sector SkillsPlan(SSP)which isafiveyearplanthat isannually updated, we strongly believe that our contribution in addressing scarce and critical skills will be a meaningful one. One of the major challenges facing the transport sector is training and development of highly skilled labour force as well as retaining the high calibre of human capital which would close the skills gaps and address the scarce and critical skills within the sector, with this booklet, TETA is paving a way for all parties to take the initiative by making sure that relevant information is provided for decision making.

To ensure that learners are trained on interventions meeting the required quality provisioning. It is anticipated that the career guide will achieve the following:

• Inform end users with relevant information on scarce and critical skills;• Disseminate information of all accredited providers from private and public sector, including Institutes of Sectoral or Occupational Excellence (ISOEs)• Identify all relevant Labour Centres for more access for job seekers and learning opportunity seekers; and• Expose all relevant opportunities to users about the Transport Sector. As an institution that is centred in the heart of innovation and an engine of skills development in the transport sector, TETA will not limit its effort to this career guide, but, will ensure that career exhibitions are held in all the provinces to reach as many potential learners, job seekers, providers and employers in the transport sector.

I wish to thank all our Stakeholders that participated in supporting us in producing a list of scarce and critical skills, the TETA Board for its commitment, support and leadership, as well as the staff and management of TETA for their dedication and hard work. It is only through all these efforts that we are able to present this Career Guide.

4 Career tips

Yes. At TETA we believe that career guidance is important because it is an investment

in your future and as an individual. Young people need to make sure that they make the

best choice in the most suitable field. The happiest and most fulfilled people have chosen

careers that suit their character, where they can be themselves, find decent work that

helps them express what they are passionate about. Sometimes changes in careers also

happen and these need to be carefully managed. It is important to make informed choices.

Sometimes career guidance can also help people discover possibilities that they not

have known were available. It is also important to find out which skills are needed in the

economy and which are in high demand at present.

Is career

guidance important?

We spend so much time during our lives at work that it makes sense to choose a career with great care and to start preparing for it as early as possible. We need to know what kind of work is available, what career will best suit our personal skills and interests and give us job satisfaction, and what subjects we need to take. Here are some things to think about:

Do I want a Job, Career, or Vocation?

• If you have a job, you can earn enough money to survive.

• To enter a career, you normally need a formal qualification, where you will have opportunities to develop your knowledge, skills, and experience as you progress from stage to stage.

• A vocation is a path you feel you must follow because you enjoy it and because you feel it is worthwhile; it may mean a career path that does not always pay a top salary but you choose it because it offers you job satisfaction and a sense of fulfilment.

The first step in job seeking is not sending out an application, as you might have thought; rather, it involves developing a solid idea of your interests, strengths and weaknesses. Once you know what these are, you will be more able to make the correct choice when it comes to your career.

To uncover your passion and talents, it may help to reflect a little on your past and the choices you have made up to now. For example, if you headed the social committee at high school and were always asked to organise events at university, or even if you are always the one in your group who takes the initiative to make arrangements, then you may have a flair for events coordination. Make a list of all the hobbies you enjoy, and the clubs you have

participated in, and see if you can find a golden thread connecting them. Make a list of what you consider to be your strengths, if you battle to pinpoint yours, try asking your parents, friends and/or teachers. What do they consider your strongest abilities? In which areas do you excel? What is your most valuable quality and what do others appreciate most in you?

While you’re at it, ask them about your weaker points. It might be difficult to hear their answers, but we can only address our shortcomings once we know what they are.

Once you have defined what you believe to be your strengths, weaknesses and interests, and have attended Career Day Expo’s, Open Days at various Tertiary Institutions, perhaps even spoken to your Guidance Counsellor, you should have a good idea of which career would suit you best and how to go about getting your qualification and ultimately achieving your career goals.

Creating a Curriculum Vitae

The first part of your CV is where you need to state all your personal details – your name, address, driver’s licence information, and your contact details. You can also add other useful facts that might be of interest to a recruiter here, such as the fact that you speak another language, and your level of proficiency in it. The next part of your CV should cover your education and qualifications. List these in chronological order, starting with the most recent and going backwards. Also, be sure to mention if you achieved good results.

While you may not yet have garnered much work experience, every little bit counts. Any position you have occupied will show potential employers what sort of skills you have developed and demonstrate that

Page 13: TETA Career Guide Vol3

TETA Learner Career GuideVolume 3

13

you’re a diligent and hard worker. Whether you worked as an afternoon au pair, a weekend shop assistant or even if you were on your high school’s drama club, make sure to mention it. Use this opportunity to write about what you learnt from the experience – perhaps you improved on your people skills or learnt basic accounting.

The next section of your CV is where you list your accomplishments, whether academic, social or cultural. Even if your achievements are not directly related to the type of job you’re applying for, giving recruiters a glimpse of your personality makes it more likely they’ll want to see more.  Don’t,however,goto theoppositeextreme and list things that are completely irrelevant. Cataloguing every swimming race you won in primary school won’t win you any brownie points.

The reference section at the end of your CV is very important as it provides recruiters with a way of getting another person’s opinion of you. That doesn’t mean you can include your best friend or your boyfriend as a contact person. Good ideas for reference contacts are your current or last employer (where possible and appropriate), an academic contact (such as one of your teachers or sports coach) or somebody that has served alongside you on a committee perhaps at church or at school. Remember to check with people that they are happy to be contacted before you list them.Your CV is not only a record of all you have accomplished; it’s also one of the primary tools in convincing a prospective employer that you are the right person for the job, as well as being the first point of contact you have with the company at which you are applying. As such, you should tailor your CV for the specific job you are applying for. Highlight skills that are relevant to that position and that would make you a valuable addition to the company.

Your cv

In short...• Your CV is your personal marketing tool• Your CV should be a true reflection

of who you are and what you have achieved to date

• You can not compile your CV a day before you need to submit it - crafting a CV should be a carefully considered process that takes time.

What is a CV?Curriculum vitae is a Latin term that means “courseoflife”-inotherwordsasummaryof your work experience, educational background, and skills. Your CV is your personal marketing tool that will secure you an interview - not a job. The more effort you put into this marketing tool, the better your chances that your CV will reflect the “true you”andthebetteryourchancesofbeinginvited to an interview.

A good CV is not just a standard template that you use to apply for any position, but it should be adapted to match each position that you apply for.

Format of the CV• Use a consistent layout (for example,

all headings in bold and font size 14 and all normal text font size 12)

• Check spelling and grammar - use a dictionary and ask someone to read the CV for you if you feel unsure

• Keep it simple - it is not necessary to use fancy fonts and coloured paper.

Preparing for an Interview

First of all, start by researching the organisation by looking at the company website and finding out as much as you can about it. This will not only help you to ascertain whether or not you will fit in and how you could contribute, but also shows you care. Candidates who show a keen interest in the company and know how it operates are more likely to be hired.

Identify your key skills and attributes that you believe will be of benefit for the specific job and that match the corporate culture, and draw up a list of possible questions you may be asked. Make sure you include the toughest questions you can think of so that you’re prepared for anything that comes your way.

Most recruiters realise that graduates are unlikely to have much work experience, and rather than focusing on previous jobs, they tend to use behavioural-based interview techniques that assume your past behaviour predicts how you will conduct yourself in the future. For example, if you have shown initiative in the past, you are likely to do so in the future. Be prepared to answer specific questions about how and when you demonstrated characteristics that will be important in the job you’re being interviewed for. Being able to provide actual examples of what the company is looking for, such as how you dealt with a deadline or high levels of pressure in  thepast, gives a real-life picture of how you behave, rather than vague suggestions about your character.

Make sure that you have copies of your CV to take with you, as well as any other documentation that may be required, such as your ID, driver’s licence and proof of your qualifications. Phone and confirm your appointment and make sure that you know exactly what time it is scheduled for and

how to get there. Choose an appropriate outfit for the interview – one that matches the corporate culture of the company. Make sure that it is both professional and comfortable. Get a good night’s sleep so that you are fresh and can concentrate during the interview.

On the day, leave early in case of traffic, and try to get to the interview at least 10 minutes before you’re due to give yourself a chance to prepare yourself and to show that you are enthusiastic about the position. Never be late for an interview.

Always greet interviewers with a firm shake and look them in the eye, this shows that you are confident and not easily intimated by difficult situations. Pay attention during the interview to the questions you are being asked and respond clearly. When nervous, people tend to talk too quickly, so keep your voice slow and don’t panic if a question comes up that you haven’t prepared for – take a second or two to think it over before responding.

After the interview, write everything down – your thoughts and impressions about the interview, the names of the people you met and the questions you found easy, struggled with or hadn’t thought of. Not only will this allow you to better prepare for future interviews, it will also help you to remember important information that you may need if called back for a second interview.
