Employment &Career Development
Project Y membership provides access to a variety of career services designed to support your job search and career development. It's important to note that securing and maintaining employment is ultimately your responsibility.
Job Placement
As your agent, we facilitate placements in both local and international full-time roles. The initial opportunity typically comes in the form of a 24-month apprenticeship contract or an internship, providing a solid foundation for your career development.
Employer of Record
Through Project Y's Employer of Record (EOR) service, companies can employ you with us acting as your official employer. This arrangement is particularly attractive for engagements with international employers, as we handle all administrative aspects, including payroll, taxes, pension contributions, and legal compliance. This also ensures accurate and timely payment for you.
Visa &Relocation Support
Project Y provides complimentary consulting services for any work visa-related inquiries, offering guidance and support throughout the visa application process.
Financial Support
We offer a monthly support package to cover living expenses, data and internet, and transport costs to Project Y hubs. This support kicks in after a successful first month of enrollment, following the "Trial Phase," and continues as long as the member does not earn an income.
Month 1: R0
The first month of membership, known as the "Trial Phase," does not include financial support. Members are expected to cover their own transport and other costs during this period to show their "skin in the game".
Month 2-7: R4000p/m
From the second month onwards, during your study and job orientation period, you will receive a monthly allowance from us to support basic needs, including transport to Project Y hubs. Financial support is distributed partially in cash and primarily through vouchers.
After month 8: R6000p/m
(until job placement)
During the job placement phase, you'll receive an increased monthly income from us to cover your basic needs, supporting you until you secure a job that pays significantly more than 6,000 ZAR. Financial contributions will cease upon job acquisition. Note that we reserve the right to discontinue financial support if there is insufficient commitment to the job search, at our discretion.
Laptop Rental
Available exclusively with the comprehensive package, we offer a suitable laptop for educational and professional use for up to 24 months. Usage is restricted to educational and professional purposes, and we reserve the right to limit access to the laptop exclusively at Project Y hubs.
Project Y Co-Working Hubs
Our membership grants you access to office and co-working spaces across all Project Y hubs. These hubs are equipped with workspaces, stable internet, and electricity, ensuring an optimal work environment. Additionally, community managers are present at the hubs to facilitate engagement, and regular events are organized to connect you with like-minded peers.
