Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about AfriHire, whether you are looking for your next role or looking to hire top talent.
For Job Seekers
What is AfriHire?
AfriHire is a job-discovery platform built specifically for African professionals looking to relocate. We help you find global opportunities by identifying and labelling roles with strong visa-sponsorship potential in countries like the UK, EU, Canada, and the US.
Does AfriHire guarantee visa sponsorship?
No. We use data to identify companies that hold active sponsor licences and roles that meet salary thresholds, highlighting those with a high likelihood of sponsorship. However, the final decision to offer sponsorship lies entirely with the employer and the relevant immigration authorities.
Is it free to use AfriHire?
Yes. Browsing jobs, creating a profile, and applying for roles is completely free for job seekers. We will never ask you to pay for a job offer or a visa guarantee. If anyone ever asks you for money in exchange for a job on our platform, please report it immediately as it is a scam.
How does the AI Matcher work?
Our AI Matcher analyzes your uploaded CV and profile against specific job descriptions. It provides you with a compatibility score, highlights your strengths, and points out any missing skills. It can also help generate tailored cover letters based on your unique experience.
For Employers
Why should I hire through AfriHire?
AfriHire gives you direct access to a highly motivated, pre-screened pool of elite African talent. Our candidates are tech, finance, and healthcare professionals actively looking for global opportunities and ready to relocate.
How do I post a job?
Simply create an employer account and choose a hiring plan that suits your needs. Once registered, you can post jobs directly from your Employer Dashboard, specifying your visa sponsorship capabilities to attract the right candidates.
Can I search for candidates directly?
Yes. Depending on your subscription plan, you can access our candidate database to proactively search, filter, and reach out to professionals based on their skills, experience, and readiness to relocate.
Do you provide visa application assistance?
While we provide extensive resources and guides on the relocation process, AfriHire is not an immigration law firm. Employers are responsible for managing their own visa sponsorship processes and adhering to their local immigration laws.
