Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 77064, member: 636"] Namibia's president dropped the news that anyone trying to get into the military, police, or prisons better have their National Youth Service certificate ready because that's the only way in from here on out. Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah told over 1,000 graduates at Rietfontein that the cabinet wants NYS grads first in line for entry-level government jobs, and she's thinking about making all new hires do a one-month NYS crash course during probation. The defense force is grabbing 600 of these fresh graduates right away, and the Ministry of Home Affairs has another 430 on deck for whenever they open up slots. She basically told state companies and private businesses they should hire these people if they want workers who won't flake out on them. Around 11,000 young people applied for this round of training, which shows a ton of kids want to get their foot in the door with government work. [/QUOTE]
