In the beginning of the year (not sure when exactly) I saw an adverti*****t for the job on indeed and I applied for that post (social worker position). Few weeks later I received an email regretting that my application was rejected. Fine by me... I even forgot that I applied at Durdoc. On Thursday (29-11-18) I received a phone call from the lady saying she's Ms Mhlongo if I'm not mistaken calling from Durdoc hospital offering me a job that I applied for because the person who was interviewed for the job didn't pitch in for the tests that they supposed to do so they saw me as the qualified candidate. I told her that I was on the way so I can't speak properly. If she could call me later so that she can explain further as I did not understand. She said I should call the HR officer Ms Lindiwe Ntseka so that she can explain to me everything and gave me the number. Fine. I did phone the number I was given to and there was no response and made a note that I will call in the morning. I did on Friday morning and the lady Ms Ntseka answered and asked why I didn't call yesterday I told her what happened and then she said she was in a meeting around that time I called and didn't see the missed call. Fine, she started to explain what happened to the candidate that was interviewed and then interview me and I answered. She than told me that I got the job. So after that she asked me when can I come to sign the contract. I told her I can't just up and go as I was at work. She told me that to make sure I take the job I have to come and sign the papers and that she understands I have to serve the notice at my current work. Ok we agreed that I will find a day to come over. So she then said to me "let's talk ke Myolwa ntombi, as you know that you did not do the interviews but we chose you anyway you have to pay R14 000. 00. R7 000.is for the unit manager so that when he signs the contract he would say you were at the interviews and the other R7 000.is for the HR management and I started to be shocked now. How come? According to my understanding a person can be interviewed through the phone and I thought that was what we were doing all along. I asked the lady isn't that a fraud because you asked me what kind of a person I was and I told you and now you tell me this wouldn't that be a contradiction of what I just told you about me? And she said "phela ntombi siyakhulumisana njenga bantu" her words. And I was so confused. I asked her that I told you how much I'm getting paid where I'm working it's not even close to what you are asking so where do you think I would get the money so she said the unit manager will not sign the contract for me if I did not pay the money especially for him then I can pay later for the HR management or even after my first salary. So when I have the money for the unit manager I should call them. I'm really confused if is this how people get jobs it is so embarrassing and disgusting because people out there are desperate looking for jobs but how can they get the jobs when they don't have even the 50 to buy something to eat at home. Where is our country going to? When will this corruption end, when will we get the jobs without doing fraud in our country?, why do we have to suffer like this for the higher positions? May the good Lord be with our country and help us not be that much desperate to even fall for these things that are happening in our country. May we stand firm for the truth and end this corruption and help those who are in need of the jobs to get it in a good and deserving manner. I am so disappointed by what happened to me.
