Nedbank Yes Program for 2025 

In South Africa, many young people face challenges when it comes to finding a job. To help change that, Nedbank is stepping up and offering a fantastic opportunity through the YES Programme (Youth Employment Service). 

This programme is aimed at giving young South Africans the chance to gain real work experience, develop important skills, and improve their chances of finding a job in the future.

The programme is set to begin on 1 June 2025, so there’s plenty of time to prepare and apply before it starts.

Applicants should note that this is not an internship or learnership its simply an initiative to combat unemployment in SA.
