Itumeleng’s Insider Tip: The “Township Transit” Advantage
CV Optimization: Grid Protection is being very specific about wanting guards from Alex, Diepsloot, Tembisa, and Soweto. They know these areas have direct, reliable taxi routes into the Rosebank/Melrose area. On the very first page of your CV, clearly state your residential area/township right under your contact details. If your address is hidden on page three, the HR team might skip your application assuming you live too far from Melrose Arch!
