With youth unemployment in South Africa sitting near 60%, something has to give. For JOBJACK CEO and Co-founder Christiaan van den Berg, that “something” is hope — and action. In this episode of Innovate Africa, van den Berg shares how JOBJACK is tackling the country’s unemployment crisis by bridging the gap between job seekers and hard-to-fill entry-level roles. 

“We’re really there to see what dent we can make in a society where unemployment is a crucial need — not just to change generational wealth, but to restore dignity,” he says.

From psychometric assessments designed for local realities, to growing from 5,000 users to over 3 million, JOBJACK's journey is anything but ordinary. Watch how this HR tech platform is rewriting the rules of access and opportunity — one job at a time.
