Top Ten Tips! Applying for Jobs
1. Introduce yourself
We have over a thousand tutors so it's important that you stand out from the crowd. Introduce yourself to the coordinators. Send a Whatsapp to say hi and let the coordinators know who you are, where you are and what you can teach. If you've filled in the application form they can look you up on the system if they need more information.
2. Apply for jobs in or close to your area
this reduces travel expenses and time spent getting to the job.
3. Check your availability
Make sure that you are available in the requested times. If the client has not given times be sure to let us know when you are available. We realize the Varsity timetables change so we ask that you let us know each time you apply for a job.
4. Be selective
Make sure that the subject requested is one that you are able to tutor.
5. Make sure the job is still available
Check the comments section on the job posted. We will let you know if the job is no longer available.
6. Be fast!
We want to improve our turnaround time so that we can place a tutor with a client within 24 hours. The sooner you let us know you're available the better.
7. Whatsapp the coordinator
We dig using Whatsapp. On the Facebook Tutors Group, tutor coordinators leave their number. Often coordinators are not in the office so if you send them a Whatsapp this will speed up the process.
8. Sell yourself
If there is something you didn't mention in your original application that might help you get the job, feel free to say it now!
9. Get a picture profile
You'll notice on our website that some of the tutors have picture profiles. This is a friendly way of introducing you to the client. If you would like a picture profile check out some of the profiles on the site and send a photo to nick [at] johannesburgtutors [dot] com with accompanying text. We regret that if the photo is not sufficient quality for our website we won't be able to feature it. You will then need to apply to be photographed at one of our professional portrait photo shoots.
10. Get a reference
If you have tutored before, even if it's for family or friends ask them to write you a reference.
