Pick me! is an online platform to assist with recruitment in the citrus industry by sharing job seekers information with companies seeking employees.
Bursary Fund graduates and/or candidates with citrus-related qualifications can register as a job seeker by creating an account here, signing in and registering as a job seeker by filling out the registration form. Listings will remain online for one month, and it is the candidate’s responsibility to update their listing.
Disclaimer: Citrus Academy is not a recruitment agency, and does not conduct vetting of potential candidates or involve itself in any way in the employer / employee relationship. Interested employers are to liaise directly with job seekers listed on our website.
Ready-Steady-Work is an online programme with three courses aimed at those entering the workplace, workplace coaches/employers and new employees.
Citrus Academy encourages candidates who list their details on the Pick me! platform to register and complete the Ready! programme. This programme is offered free of charge.
