SA student creates app to help you find a job – no data needed

Johannesburg – Most of us know the irritation of having a younger sibling or children always wanting to play on our cellphones.

Whether it’s to deplete your battery playing Candy Crush or download music, many of us are filled with dread as soon as they reach out their hand, asking for our devices.

Well, maybe we should start encouraging them to explore our mobile devices. After all, that is exactly what sparked 22-year-old Mzamo Mbhele’s interest in all things technology, and ultimately lead to him creating a job-hunting app JOB X.

The youngster, from Umlazi township in Durban, is a third-year IT software development student at Mangosuthu University of Technology.

JOB X helps job seekers find employment by showing them available jobs near them based on their qualifications.
