Authorities have stated that preference will be given to applicants with tertiary qualifications and valid driver’s licences. Police spokesperson Amanda Van Wyk said assessments are currently underway in all nine provinces. She highlighted the high volume of applications received: “SAPS received over a million applications of which 334,765 are graduates who hold qualifications in policing, law, forensic investigation, and other fields of study,” she advised.
