B) African Job Sites by Category

jobRank publishes the 2023 sub-ranking of the top job sites in Africa classified according to one of the following 8 jobRank categories.

1. African Job Boards & Banks

African job boards, often referred to as job banks, are online platforms that display a wide range of African job vacancies and resumes (CVs) across diverse industries, professions, levels of work experience and occupational categories. These platforms typically offer complimentary job search and resume posting services for job seekers, while also providing fee-based options for employers and recruiters, such as job posting and resume search capabilities.

2. African Niche Job Boards & Banks

African niche job boards, alternatively known as targeted job boards or specialty job banks, are online platforms dedicated to showcasing African job openings and resumes (CVs) exclusively within specific industries, professions, levels of work experience or occupational categories that align with their specialized focus and niche. These platforms typically extend complimentary services like job search and resume posting for job seekers, while also offering fee-based options such as job posting and resume search features for employers and recruiters.

3. African Job Search Engines & Aggregators

African job search engines and aggregators are online platforms that gather and consolidate job listings from various sources across the internet. These platforms provide users, primarily job seekers, with a centralized location to search for job openings from different African job boards, company websites and additional sources. Job search engines use advanced algorithms to index and categorize job postings, making it easier for users to refine their search based on criteria such as location, industry, job title and more.

4. African Recruiters & Headhunters

African Recruiters are agencies or firms that employers engage to promote job openings and, on their behalf, locate the most suitable candidate for a given position in Africa. Conversely, African head hunters are skilled professionals tasked with proactively searching for and pinpointing experienced candidates, typically for specific senior-level or executive roles. Both recruiters and head hunters frequently often focus on specific industries, professional spheres or occupational sectors. These experts often extend supplementary services like outplacement, outsourcing, retention strategies, consulting and interim management, in addition to their core recruitment responsibilities.

5. African Temp & Staffing Agencies

African temp and staffing agencies, also known as temporary employment agencies or staffing firms, are organizations that connect businesses with temporary, part-time or full-time workers to meet their short-term or long-term flexible staffing needs. These agencies act as intermediaries between job seekers and employers in Africa, providing a range of employment solutions tailored to the specific requirements of both parties.

6. African Au pair & Nanny Agencies

African au-pair and nanny agencies are organizations that facilitate the placement of African or foreigner childcare providers, such as au pairs and nannies, with families seeking assistance in caring for their children in Africa or abroad. These agencies act as intermediaries, matching qualified African or international childcare providers with families based on specific criteria and preferences. The primary goal of these agencies is to ensure a suitable and safe environment for children while providing job opportunities for individuals interested in short-term or long-term childcare careers in Africa or abroad.

7. African Labor Institutions & Organizations

African labour institutions and organizations are entities established to address labor-related issues, advocate and promote workers' rights and ensure fair working conditions in Africa. These include African Ministries or Departments of Labour, Trade Unions, Employment Standards Agencies, Labor Research Institutes etc.

8. Other African Employment & Job Sites

Other African employment and job sites refer to a miscellaneous category of online platforms in Africa that offer job listings or employment-related resources beyond the scope of traditional job boards, niche job boards, job search engines, recruiters, headhunters and additional core categories adopted by jobRank. Examples are Resume services and Salary websites, African Recruiters Associations, Labour and Employment Publications etc.
