In my humble opinion...BBBEE and Nepotism are the leading cause of the ongoing Brain Drain. It is time for SA to unite in all respects and allow all citizens to help build the country, the economy and to embrace all our wonderful races and cultures. SA has the potential to be the best country in the world if politics is removed from everyday living.
Lockdown had forced people to work remotely. This skilled workforce have seen the new opportunities opening up and possibilities for them to advance outside of our unstable economy entrusted to a directionless, clueless, greedy corruption riddled government. The skilled workforce have either relocated or are working from outside our borders in safer stable locations with job security. Business opportunities, skills development, increased employment generation, have diminished further with unstable electricity blackouts, lack of accoutability for corruption, incompetent cadre deployment and looting. Lack of equitable incentives to business, which carry maximum financial risk, also saw companies relocatiing or closing down. The economic turnaround can only come from the biggest employer, the state. The lack of political will to make this sector accountable for corruption and looting of state resources makes us a failed state. The lack of maintenance and security of infrastructure, the expectation and the syndrome of entitlement of promised free resources and welfare, breeds a culture of unreasonable dependancy on a looted corrupt state further enabled by their vote and re-election.
Lets be honest, there is no such thing as skill shortage.The problem is companies are looking for geniuses(who are extremely rare to find even in the so called better countries). These companies dont wanna train anyone, they want angels who show up with all the skills.
Most people have skills but government overlook them and creat new positions that require degrees,most the degree people dont even have experience how will the job be done look at the skills and send them for their shortcomings to match the so called requirements one will get great results.South africa has alot of degree people without jobs being produced by universities thinking they will get great jobs shame......
In the 1900 th. In New York an add has been posted looking for a MAN who should have about 12 to 15 skills in a domain of one of industry at that time. The add was removed in less than a week. Meaning they got a such person they needed. skills and more half mastered skills. What an imbecile half animal world!!!

not getting bang for your tax buck, better salaries abroad, lower crime rates. Same reasons most people leave.
Everything in the country is falling apart while ANC is busy electing who is next to loot government's money, not caring or responsible in anything

Is it an actual skill shortage overall or BEE related skill shortage? I'm just asking...
We also need more artisans , qualified electricians, mechanics, qualified plumbers, metal workers etc.
Your hundred percent correct .increase the volume on this
And these skills need some kind of math.
We have so much of them but they being classifie as no value and being underpaid and no one wants to fund them to become qualified
Our Skills have gone elsewhere who can blame them.
Vacancies and jobs are being created to suit certain people not to better south africa
ANC governance, making living in the country a bad deal on compared to other places in the world.

Capitalism has no morals my friend
Here you are corrected I have experienced this in some interviews I’ve attended
It’s funny how this reporter had his own list to confirm which wasn’t mentioned by the CEO 😂
Degree students being produced for no job or oportunity
Nah people are choosing unless degrees in universities
people are being fooled with degrees for which there are no jobs
Most people have skills but government overlook them and creat new positions that require degrees,most the degree people dont even have experience how will the job be done look at the skills and send them for their shortcomings to match the so called requirements one will get great results.South africa has alot of degree people without jobs being produced by universities thinking they will get great jobs shame......
