The Eskom Graduate in Training 2026/27 programme is open to unemployed South African graduates who want real workplace experience at the country's national power utility. Two finance-focused streams are still taking applications, and both close on 9 October 2026, so you need to act quickly.
Quick Facts

Positions Still Open
1. Graduate in Training – Process Control and Assurance and Project Accounting (Finance)
This stream suits graduates who enjoy numbers, controls and tracking project budgets. You'll gain exposure to how a large organisation checks its financial processes and accounts for major projects.
2. Graduate in Training – Fleet Management (Finance)
This stream is about the money side of running a large vehicle fleet, including costs, budgets and procurement. It's a good fit if you're interested in logistics as well as finance.
Minimum Requirements
For either stream, you need a fully completed Bachelor's Degree in one of these fields:
- Finance
- Procurement
- Transport
- Supply Chain Management
Your degree must already be finished. If you're still waiting for final results, check with Eskom before you apply.
Documents to Prepare
- An updated CV (no more than two pages is best)
- A copy of your South African ID
- Your degree certificate or completion letter
- Your full academic record
How to Apply
- Go to the official Eskom Careers page.
- Search for "Graduate in Training" and open the stream that matches your degree.
- Register or log in, then fill in your profile completely.
- Upload your documents and submit before 9 October 2026.
Each stream has its own application link, so make sure you apply for the one that matches your qualification.
Tips to Stand Out
- Put your degree, major subjects and graduation year at the top of your CV.
- Mention any vacation work, tutoring or project work involving budgets, procurement or data.
- Apply today. Online systems often slow down on the last day.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an application fee?
No. Eskom doesn't charge anyone to apply. If someone asks you for money for a "placement", it's a scam.
Can I apply if I'm working?
No. This programme is for unemployed graduates.
What if I don't hear back?
Large employers get many applications. If you haven't been contacted within a few weeks of the closing date, assume you weren't shortlisted, and keep applying to other programmes on Campus Linc.
Disclaimer: Campus Linc is not linked to Eskom and doesn't process applications. Always check the details on Eskom's official careers portal before you apply.
