Frequently Asked Questions
How does this batch differ from the previous DoJ&CD Administration Clerk batch on this site? The earlier DoJ&CD Administration Clerk post covered 7 posts across Gauteng (Vanderbijlpark, Johannesburg Master of High Court) and Western Cape (Bellville ×3, Mitchells Plain, Caledon). This new batch covers 9 posts across KwaZulu-Natal (Mahlabathini, Newcastle, Paulpietersburg), Gauteng (Randfontein, Kempton Park), and North West (Taung ×2, Klerksdorp ×2) — entirely different locations. Candidates may apply to both batches simultaneously if they meet the requirements and are willing to work at any of the listed locations.
Where is Mahlabathini and what community does it serve? Mahlabathini is a small town in the uMkhanyakude District of northern KwaZulu-Natal — in the heart of the Zululand region, serving rural farming and traditional communities across a vast area. The Mahlabathini Magistrate Court serves this predominantly isiZulu-speaking community — making isiZulu language proficiency a strong practical advantage for candidates applying for this post.
Can I apply using the online Microsoft Forms link for all three provinces? Yes — all three provinces list the same online application URL: https://forms.office.com/r/X2XaVPasWu. This is the DoJ&CD’s national online application portal. Candidates must quote the correct reference number for their preferred location regardless of application method. A separate application must be submitted for each post.
⚠️ How to Apply
Quote the correct reference number and apply to the relevant provincial address. Separate application per post is mandatory.
