Jeffreys Bay – Kouga Municipality has committed its unwavering support for the innovative and new “PickMe” App – which is set to combat local unemployment.
Officially launched on Tuesday (18 July 2023), the app, which offers a platform for individuals, professionals, SMMEs, and businesses to generate and be visible for work and job opportunities, is set to revolutionize the way people find employment and promote their skills throughout the region.
