Who should apply?
There are specific eligibility criteria for the SNG Grant Thornton Traineeship/Internship programme. Everyone applying for the opportunity must meet all of the criteria to be considered. Since the number of applicants often outnumber the positions available, the company cannot select everyone. Therefore, always cross-check before applying to avoid rejection.

A South African citizen
