Microsoft posts student and graduate roles individually on careers.microsoft.com rather than as a single annual intake. Typical openings include University Intern (MCAPS), Technology Specialist, Cloud Solution Architect, Customer Success Account Manager and Data Center Technician. Search the South Africa location filter and set up alerts, as roles appear at different times of year.
• Check the official portal for the latest intake dates and closing dates.
• Beware of scams - GoCareers never charges for applications, and neither do legitimate providers.
