So, whatโs the deal with this learnership?
Basically, itโs a year-long gig where you get hands-on retail experience, soak up some real-world knowledge, and actually pocket a paycheck while youโre at it. Itโs not just classroom theoryโyeah, thereโs some of that, but most of the time youโll be on the shop floor, learning how the fashion game really works. And hey, at the end, you walk away with a shiny qualification. Not too shabby, right?
Who are they looking for?
If youโre:
– Between 18 and 35
– Sitting on a Matric certificate
– Currently unemployed (scrolling TikTok at 2pm counts)
– Obsessed with fashion or retailโor at least pretending to be
– Open to learning new things and not afraid to hustle
Never worked before? Doesnโt matter. Actually, thatโs kinda the point. They want newbies, recent school leavers, people ready for a fresh start.
Whatโs in it for you?
– Real training, fully legit and SETA-accredited
– Actual work experience in a Truworths store (not just fetching coffee)
– Skills in customer service, merchandising, sales, stockโbasically, youโll know your way around a store by the end of it
– Major confidence boost and way better people skills (seriously, youโll never mumble through โcan I help you?โ again)
