Once to you have to pay money upfront for a job application- know that it is fake.

examples: are training fees, uniform fees, application fees etc.....they should deduct from salary if they want money.

Actually i met two girls from mafikeng (studying or hunting for jobs in Jhb) two weeks ago in Truworths (Eloff Str-downtown) they were busy talking about the agency and paying money, i could not resist and told them "Never pay money to anyone until the product has been delivered".
