If you are looking for Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities vacancies in DPSA Circular 33 of 2026, there is an important detail to understand before you start preparing your application.
Not every DWYPD vacancy appearing in Circular 33 is a completely new advertisement.
When we reviewed the DWYPD section of the circular, we found an erratum covering three positions previously advertised in Circular 32 of 2026. Their closing date was extended from 18 September 2026 to 28 September 2026. The same section then introduces a separate post, Deputy Director: Governance and Regulations Rights of Youth, reference DWYPD/015/2026.
This distinction matters because a job seeker who reads only the latest circular number might assume all four entries are new vacancies.
This guide explains what changed, what the official advertisement says, what applicants should check before applying, how to interpret the requirements and how to avoid common mistakes.
The guide is an independent explanation of the official vacancy material. It is not an application portal and does not replace the government advertisement.

Introduction
Government vacancy circulars often look straightforward until you compare one circular with the previous edition.
A position might appear again because the deadline changed. Another position might be completely new. An erratum might alter one important detail without reproducing the entire original advertisement.
This is exactly what happened with the Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities section in Circular 33 of 2026.
During our review, we first checked the department heading and general application instructions. We then checked the closing date. After reaching the DWYPD vacancy section, we separated the erratum from the new vacancy instead of treating every reference number as a new advertisement.
The result is important for applicants.
Three positions were carried forward from Circular 32 with a revised deadline. A fourth position, Deputy Director: Governance and Regulations Rights of Youth, appears as an “OTHER POST” in Circular 33.
This guide follows the same approach you should use when checking a DPSA vacancy: identify the source, check the reference number, check whether an amendment exists, confirm the deadline, read the requirements and then follow the official application instructions.
What We Found When Reviewing Circular 33
The DWYPD section starts with the department’s mandate and application instructions.
The department says its mandate involves socio-economic transformation and the empowerment and participation of women, youth and persons with disabilities through mainstreaming, advocacy, monitoring and evaluation.
The application instructions provide postal, hand-delivery and email options. The email route requires a single scanned PDF attachment and states that emailed applications and attachments should not exceed 15 MB.
The department also provides specific instructions about the Z83 form, detailed CV, certified documents and later recruitment checks.
These details matter because an applicant could meet every qualification requirement and still create an avoidable problem by submitting an incomplete Z83, using the wrong reference number or ignoring the stated application method.
What Changed From Circular 32?
This is the most important part of the DWYPD section.
Circular 33 identifies three posts originally advertised in Circular 32:
Researcher, DWYPD/012/2026
Senior Youth Development Officer, DWYPD/013/2026
Information Technology Officer, DWYPD/011/2026
The original closing date was 18 September 2026.
Circular 33 extends the closing date to:
28 September 2026 at 16:00.
What this means if you already applied
If you already prepared an application after reading Circular 32, do not assume Circular 33 creates a completely different vacancy.
First compare your reference number with the three reference numbers listed in the erratum.
If your application relates to DWYPD/012/2026, DWYPD/013/2026 or DWYPD/011/2026, Circular 33 confirms the revised deadline.
Then return to the original Circular 32 advertisement for the complete qualification, experience, salary and duty information.
This is an important editorial distinction because Circular 33 does not reproduce the complete original advertisement for those three posts.
About the Department
The Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities states that its mandate focuses on socio-economic transformation and the empowerment and participation of women, youth and persons with disabilities. Its stated approach includes mainstreaming, advocacy, monitoring and evaluation.
The vacancies in the circular reflect different areas of public administration and programme delivery.
For job seekers, the practical lesson is to look beyond the vacancy title. Read the duties because the duties show the type of work the department expects from the successful candidate.
Researcher, Reference DWYPD/012/2026
The Researcher position is one of the three posts listed in the Circular 33 erratum.
Reference:
DWYPD/012/2026
Status in Circular 33:
Previously advertised in Circular 32, with the closing date extended.
New closing date:
28 September 2026 at 16:00.
The supplied Circular 33 advertisement does not reproduce the full Researcher advertisement.
For this reason, this guide does not invent or repeat qualification, salary or duty information for the Researcher post from memory or from an unrelated source.
Applicants should read the original Circular 32 advertisement together with the Circular 33 erratum.
This approach is important when dealing with amended government advertisements. An amendment should be read as an amendment, rather than treated as a complete replacement document unless the government source says otherwise.
Senior Youth Development Officer, Reference DWYPD/013/2026
The Senior Youth Development Officer is the second position covered by the Circular 33 amendment.
Reference:
DWYPD/013/2026
Status:
Previously advertised in Circular 32.
Revised closing date:
28 September 2026 at 16:00.
The Circular 33 document confirms the revised deadline but does not reproduce the complete original advertisement.
Therefore, applicants should use Circular 32 for the complete vacancy requirements and Circular 33 for the revised deadline.
A practical step is to save both circulars in the same folder on your phone or computer. Name the files clearly, for example:
DWYPD Circular 32 – Original Vacancy
DWYPD Circular 33 – Closing Date Amendment
This simple step reduces the risk of submitting an application based on outdated deadline information.
Information Technology Officer, Reference DWYPD/011/2026
The third amended position is the Information Technology Officer listed under reference DWYPD/011/2026.
Circular 33 confirms that the position was originally advertised in Circular 32 and that the closing date changed from 18 September 2026 to 28 September 2026.
Applicants should use the original Circular 32 advertisement to confirm the complete requirements.
Do not rely on a third-party summary for the qualification requirement when the official advertisement is available.
Deputy Director: Governance and Regulations Rights of Youth
The fourth DWYPD position in Circular 33 is different.
It appears under “OTHER POST”.
Position:
Deputy Director: Governance and Regulations Rights of Youth
Reference:
DWYPD/015/2026
Post number:
33/118
Location:
Pretoria
Salary:
R1,101,468 per annum, Level 12
The official advertisement requires a Matric Certificate and an NQF 7 bachelor’s degree recognised by SAQA in Youth Development, Social Sciences, Development Studies or a related field.
The advertisement also requires at least three years of first-level or middle-management experience in youth development, stakeholder management or a related field.
What the Deputy Director Requirements Mean
A vacancy advertisement tells you what the department wants. Your CV needs to make the relevant evidence easy to find.
NQF 7 bachelor’s degree
The requirement is not simply “a degree.”
The advertisement specifies an NQF 7 bachelor’s degree recognised by SAQA and identifies Youth Development, Social Sciences, Development Studies or a related field.
If your qualification is in another field, do not assume the phrase “related field” automatically includes your qualification.
Compare your qualification with the wording in the official advertisement.
Three years of management experience
The advertisement asks for at least three years of first-level or middle-management experience.
When reviewing your CV, do not look only at your job title.
Look at your actual responsibilities.
For example, experience involving staff supervision, programme coordination, stakeholder engagement, resource allocation, project management, reporting and performance management provides more useful evidence than a generic statement such as “worked in management.”
The final assessment of whether your experience satisfies the requirement belongs to the employer.
Knowledge requirements
The advertisement lists knowledge areas including legislation, governance frameworks and prescripts, the National Youth Policy, NYDA Act, stakeholder management, project management, risk management, protocol and etiquette, political processes, youth development and research.
This gives applicants a useful CV preparation guide.
If you have relevant experience in these areas, explain where you gained it.
Do not simply create a long keyword list.
Skills
The advertisement lists project conceptualisation and management, stakeholder management, networking and relationship building, programme and project management, report writing, presentation and written communication, impact and influence, budgeting, financial management, problem solving, decision-making, computer literacy and diversity management.
A practical CV improvement is to connect each relevant skill with evidence.
For example:
Weak:
“Project management.”
Stronger:
“Coordinated programme activities, monitored implementation milestones and prepared progress reports for management review.”
Only use statements supported by your actual experience.
What Work Does the Deputy Director Role Involve?
The duties give a clearer picture of the position than the title alone.
The successful candidate is expected to provide technical and advisory support to principals, support parliamentary matters, compile Cabinet memoranda, prepare submissions and briefing notes, draft speaking notes and support national youth engagements.
The role also includes coordinating international youth development engagements and supporting multilateral and bilateral engagements involving structures such as the United Nations, African Union, SADC, BRICS, IBSA and the Commonwealth.
The advertisement also assigns responsibilities relating to NYDA performance oversight, including quarterly monitoring reports, site visits, parliamentary questions, tranche payments, board processes and the Shareholder Compact.
The position also includes staff supervision and management of human and material resources.
This tells an applicant something important.
The role is broader than a conventional youth programme position. The advertised duties combine policy support, governance, stakeholder coordination, project monitoring, parliamentary support, international engagement and management responsibilities.
Your application should therefore demonstrate the parts of your experience that genuinely match these responsibilities.
Who Should Apply?
You should consider applying when your qualifications and experience match the mandatory requirements in the relevant official advertisement.
For the Deputy Director position, the advertisement specifically points toward candidates with:
- Matric
- An NQF 7 bachelor’s degree in Youth Development, Social Sciences, Development Studies or a related field
- At least three years of first-level or middle-management experience in youth development, stakeholder management or a related field
- Knowledge of relevant legislation and governance frameworks
- Youth development knowledge
- Project management experience
- Stakeholder management experience
- Research ability
- Report writing ability
- Communication skills
- Management experience
The three amended positions require a separate check against the original Circular 32 advertisements.
Who Should Not Apply?
You should reconsider applying when you clearly fail a mandatory requirement stated in the official advertisement.
For example, if the advertisement requires an NQF 7 qualification and your qualification does not meet the stated requirement, changing the wording on your CV does not solve the qualification issue.
The same applies to experience.
Do not inflate dates, job titles, management responsibilities or qualifications.
Government recruitment processes include verification and suitability checks.
The department states that shortlisted candidates will undergo assessments and personnel suitability checks.
How to Apply
The DWYPD general application instructions provide several submission methods.
Applicants may send applications by post to:
The Acting Director-General
Department of Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities
Private Bag X931
Pretoria
0001
The advertisement also provides a hand-delivery address:
268 Lilian Ngoyi Street
Fedsure Forum Building
1st Floor
Pretoria CBD
Email submission is also provided where the relevant advertisement specifies the email address.
The department states that emailed applications and attachments should be submitted as a single scanned document and should not exceed 15 MB.
For the Deputy Director position, the advertisement gives:
Applicants should still check the specific vacancy instructions before sending an application.
Z83 Form Requirements
The DWYPD notice provides specific instructions for the Z83 application form.
Applicants should complete all fields in full and sign the form.
The department says applicants should submit the completed and signed Z83 together with a detailed CV.
The advertisement also states that applicants do not initially need to submit copies of qualifications and other relevant documents, while shortlisted applicants will receive communication about certified documents.
This is an important distinction.
Do not assume that sending every certificate you own improves an application.
Follow the document requirements in the official advertisement.
Foreign Qualifications
Applicants holding foreign qualifications should pay attention to the DWYPD instruction concerning SAQA.
The advertisement states that a foreign qualification must be accompanied by an evaluation certificate from the South African Qualifications Authority.
If this applies to you, check the official requirements early rather than waiting until the application deadline.

Common Application Mistakes
Mistake 1: Treating Circular 33 as a completely new advertisement
Three DWYPD positions in the circular are amendments to Circular 32.
Check the erratum before preparing a new application.
Mistake 2: Using the old closing date
The old deadline was 18 September 2026.
The revised deadline is 28 September 2026 at 16:00.
Mistake 3: Ignoring the reference number
The reference number helps the department identify the position for which you are applying.
Copy the reference number directly from the official advertisement.
Mistake 4: Leaving Z83 fields incomplete
The department specifically says the Z83 should be completed in full.
Mistake 5: Sending several separate attachments when one PDF is required
The DWYPD instruction says emailed applications and attachments should be submitted as a single scanned document, with a 15 MB limit.
Mistake 6: Submitting certificates when the advertisement does not request them at the initial stage
The department states that shortlisted candidates will receive instructions about certified documents.
Mistake 7: Copying keywords without evidence
Writing “stakeholder management” ten times does not demonstrate stakeholder management experience.
Use specific examples from your professional history.
Mistake 8: Applying after the deadline
The department states that late applications will not be considered or accepted.
What Happens After Shortlisting?
The recruitment process includes further assessment.
The DWYPD advertisement states that shortlisted candidates, including SMS candidates, will undertake two pre-entry assessments.
One assessment is a practical exercise designed to assess suitability based on technical and generic requirements.
The other is an integrity assessment relating to ethical conduct.
The department also states that personnel suitability checks, including security vetting and competency assessment, will take place. Appointments, transfers and promotions are subject to positive outcomes from those checks.
Successful candidates also have further employment obligations. The advertisement states that successful candidates must enter into a performance agreement within three months of assuming duty and conclude the prescribed employment contract within one month of appointment. Designated employees must disclose financial interests within 30 days of assuming duty.
What If You Do Not Hear Back?
The department states that correspondence is limited to shortlisted candidates.
The notice says applicants who do not hear from the department within six weeks of the closing date should consider their application unsuccessful. It also contains a further statement concerning applicants who do not hear from the department within three months of the closing date.
Because the notice contains both statements, applicants should retain the original advertisement and use the department’s official recruitment communication for any clarification.
Practical Example: How an Applicant Should Read Circular 33
Suppose you see “Researcher DWYPD/012/2026” while reading Circular 33.
You might initially think:
“This is a new vacancy. I need to start from the beginning.”
The circular tells a different story.
The reference number appears in the erratum.
The erratum says the position was advertised in Circular 32.
The original closing date was 18 September.
The new closing date is 28 September.
The correct approach is therefore:
Step 1: Identify the reference number.
Step 2: Check whether the reference appears in the erratum.
Step 3: Retrieve the original Circular 32 advertisement.
Step 4: Read the complete requirements.
Step 5: Use Circular 33 to confirm the revised closing date.
Step 6: Prepare the application according to the original vacancy instructions and any applicable amendment.
Step 7: Submit before the revised deadline.
This is the type of cross-checking we recommend when working with DPSA vacancy circulars.
Practical CV Example
Suppose your previous role involved youth programme coordination.
Instead of writing:
“Responsible for youth programmes.”
Explain the responsibility more clearly:
“Coordinated youth development programme activities, engaged programme stakeholders, monitored implementation progress and prepared reports for management review.”
If your experience genuinely includes those activities, such wording gives the reader evidence of relevance.
For the Deputy Director role, the advertisement includes project management, stakeholder management, report writing, research, youth development and management responsibilities.
Use your CV to demonstrate those areas through genuine work experience.
Salary Information
The Deputy Director: Governance and Regulations Rights of Youth position carries a salary of:
R1,101,468 per annum
Salary level:
Level 12
The official advertisement states that appointments will be made on the first notch of the advertised salary level.
The supplied Circular 33 pages do not reproduce salary information for the three amended Circular 32 positions.
DPSACircular.co.za therefore does not insert estimated salaries for those positions.
Applicants should use the original Circular 32 advertisement for those details.
Application Privacy and Personal Information
The DWYPD notice addresses the protection of applicants’ personal information.
The department states that personal information will be collected, used and retained for recruitment and selection purposes and that safeguards will be applied against unauthorised access, unlawful disclosure and breaches.
This is another reason applicants should use the official recruitment channel rather than sending personal documents to an unknown third party.
DPSACircular.co.za does not collect applications for these positions.
Official Source
The primary source for this guide is Public Service Vacancy Circular 33 of 2026 published by the Department of Public Service and Administration.
The official DPSA page identifies Circular 33 of 2026 and gives its posting date as 11 September 2026. The page also lists Women, Youth and Persons with Disabilities among the national departments covered by the circular.

How DPSACircular.co.za Reviewed This Vacancy
This guide follows a source-first editorial process.
We first identified the department section.
We then checked the department’s application instructions.
Next, we checked the general closing date.
We then separated the erratum from the new post.
For the amended vacancies, we recorded the three reference numbers exactly as stated.
For the new Deputy Director vacancy, we checked the reference number, post number, salary, location, qualification, experience, knowledge requirements, skills, duties and application information.
We also checked the recruitment notes covering Z83, supporting documents, assessments, personnel suitability checks and late applications.
Where Circular 33 did not provide information, we did not create an answer from assumptions.
This matters because accurate vacancy publishing requires knowing when a source does not provide enough information.
The supplied government advertisement confirms the DWYPD application instructions and closing date.
It also confirms the Z83 and supporting-document instructions.
The Deputy Director requirements and duties appear later in the same department section.
