The DPSA’s (Department of Public Service and Administration) job is to ensure that the State machines (departments) are functioning correctly at all times and that standards are met, maintained, and adhered to. If this is not the case, the DPSA implements interventions to ensure compliance, improve service delivery, and eliminate Corruption at all costs.
The DPSA is also responsible for administering and organizing government employees’ labour relations, providing Government IT (Information Technology) services, and managing Government employees’ public relations.
The DPSA Vacancy Online application process begins when the DPSA publishes a Circular for any vacant posts weekly on their website, except only in December. The Circular will include vacancies or posts available in the Public Service Departments. So, if you’re looking to apply for jobs /vacancies in the DPSA (or the Government in general), you need to search for ‘Circulars’ in that particular department you wish to enter. Once you have the latest Circular, you will see which vacant posts or jobs are available for which you can apply.
