Public Works on fake 2019 internship adverts

DPW warns the Public on 2019 fraudulent internship programme that is doing rounds in the social media.

The Department of Public Works has taken note of the recent fraudulent scam doing rounds about the 2019 internship programme that is purported to be advertised by the National Department of Public Works.

The Department would like to distance itself from such and would like to warn the public to be careful and not fall prey to these scams. The advert might look legitimate but it is not, the platform that is used and the contents of the advert are all wrong. They are misleading and enticing unsuspecting prospective applicants.

Department of Public Works’ adverts and those of government in general, are advertised through Department of Public Service and Administration (DPSA) website under vacancies as well as through national newspaper’s vacancies or jobs section and not through unknown websites.

When in doubt, members of the public should verify the authenticity of the adverts by contacting the National Department of Public Works Human Resources Recruitment representative, Ms Muriel Magane at 012 406 1552.
