Photos: Unemployed graduate lands job interviews after she stood at the traffic begging for job
A photo of a graduate begging for a job which was shared
on social media has prompted dozens of calls from prospective
employers. Unemployed BTech: Chemical Engineering graduate, Anthea
Malwandle received positive
responses after standing at a busy intersection in Johannesburg, South
Africa with a placard, asking for work.
When Malwandle completed her degree at the Vaal University of
Technology (VUT) in 2015, she never anticipated that her job-seeking
journey would be so tough.
She has been hunting for graduate and internship
programmes since April 2015, to no avail. She called many companies and
visited their offices to try schedule interview appointments but failed.
In desperation, Malwandle took to the street with a placard. Her story has moved many people and the determined woman says
that she would love to work for petrochemical companies in the
production of energy fuels.
Touched by her struggle, a Sasol employee called into the Early Breakfast Show to request a meeting with her.
