Expert Application Advice
Degree requirement — CA Global specifies a master degree: if yours is from a related field, compensate with highly targeted field experience proving your competence in the exact domain.
Extractive industry — Mining companies systematically verify your safety certifications (BOSIET, H2S, first aid). If you have them, list them with expiry dates. Rotation schedule experience is often decisive.
Quantified achievements — Projects delivered (cost, timeline, scale), standards applied (ISO, local norms), teams supervised. Professional certifications and engineering board membership are strong credibility signals.

- •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
- •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
- •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
- •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
- •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
- •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
