Put yourself on
Getting work-ready doesn’t always start with a job offer.
Sometimes, it starts with trying.
ReadytoWork is Absa’s free digital skills platform designed to help young people build confidence, capability, and momentum toward employment, entrepreneurship, or further study.
No pressure or cost - just practical skills you can use, right now.
Why Ready to Work exists
For many young people, the gap isn’t ambition or talent.
It’s access to the right skills, guidance, and confidence at the right time.
ReadytoWork exists to remove those barriers.
