6. CV Tips for Transnet Plumbing Learner Applicants

Your CV should clearly demonstrate that you are a recently qualified plumber who meets the programme’s requirements.

Place your trade qualification near the top of your CV so that recruiters can easily identify it.

What to Include

• Your contact details.
• Your Plumbing Trade Test Certificate.
• The date you completed your trade test.
• Your apprenticeship or vocational training background.
• Any genuine practical plumbing experience.
• Your experience using plumbing tools and equipment.
• Your understanding of workplace safety.
• Any relevant maintenance or fault-finding skills.

Because the programme requires less than one year of experience, distinguish your apprenticeship training from any employment experience gained after qualification.

Make sure your employment dates and qualification details are accurate.
