Author Topic: Job offer in South Afrika (Read 6863 times)

DroppingPlates · « **on:** March 17, 2013, 06:51:07 AM »

I saw a job offer in South Africa; ICT helpdesk function at IBM in Johannesburg. Based on the requirements I'm qualified for the job, but the salary seems bad, about 1700 EUR / +2200 USD $:-\$ , not sure how this salary relates to SA standards.
I understand that SA has high crime rates (I'm a Dutch whitey

), but it would be a nice chance to develop more international experience

Any experiences, thoughts, suggestions, etc?

Exactly, your just as close to rough shit living in San diego, as you are in SA.

Just don't go venturing out into the townships and should be fine.

Listen to this man he offers wisdom obtained through years of living alone in his studio flat browsing the Internet.

I'm from SA and $2200 is quite a lot for us here. It equates to almost R20,000 here and that's more than enough to live a fairly luxurious life.

Crime is somewhat a problem, but media still blows it out of proportion. It depends on which area you live etc as in all countries.

Johannesburg is quite a bitch when it comes to traffic etc but its a nice city to live in besides that.

I would say you could consider it, as South Africa is a beautiful place other wise.

I just hope that in the near future a white president is elected again as most of the blacks here are fucking useless idiots.

20k is alright, not great, depends where you live like anywhere else in the world, some areas are first world, others are like brazilian/philipino shantytowns (called locations here)

As for the white prez thing

, we're in Africa, gotta put up with some shit, its the way it is...

AFAIK, there's no corporate safe zone. They only assist in seeking a place.

Most prob gross. Vacancy was in a news paper on my work, since they seek for people who talk fluent Dutch.
Yes, it's not only an opportunity, but also an adventure. I'm bored in my country.

Nice post, thanks for sharing

Is it advised to stay home in the late evening, or depends this also on which area you are?
BTW, how are the SA white women, do they all look like Charlize Theron?

You could still go out clubbing etc, its not that dangerous in a sense like if you walk outside your home they stab you, but you have to be careful and more aware of what's going on. Lock your house, car when you leave etc. Especially be aware at robots (traffic lights) late at night. But like I said it depends on the area. Some are quite safe, others are not.

Like Figo said you get the upper class safe areas and then you get the lower class (location) where crime is higher.

SA women are of the most beautiful in the world I would say. There's not one place you will go where you do not see beautiful women.

Exactly. I don't know why people think there are only black women here. Sure they might be more than the white women, but there are more than enough white women to go around.

I don't find black women attractive at all

Just live in a "white area" and don't go out after 8pm, I know pilots from there. MOST items pretty good deal, much more prettier girls there than here as well, I'm sure good deal on gym membership too...
