Jobs vs. Careers


So, to the present day, let us take this positive out of the darkness of Apartheid and turn it into what defines the country. South Africa needs jobs and so the country should be providing these and be building the supply and demand of local industry slowly up from there. It may not be as cheap as China initially but eventually South Africa will be able to cater in both price and quality. China didn’t get to the point it is now over night, it had a long term plan and so must we.

We all know that South Africa, as the wealthiest African nation, can provide quality in everything they do, and we all know that South Africans are world renown for their ingenuity to do it, so what is stopping them? But taking it a step further, it’s not just jobs we need but careers, and there is a big difference. Careers for me are long term, sustainable and channelled towards the individual’s interests and skills rather than just a monthly or weekly wait until pay day.
