Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.

Verification notes
Primary-source rechecked on the Government of Botswana Tirelo Sechaba service page on 5 September 2026. The current page confirms the 20–30 age range, unemployed/out-of-school citizen eligibility, volunteer placements and monthly-allowance process. The page still contains internally inconsistent maximum-duration wording, so this record continues not to claim a placement duration. This append-only revision also corrects the prior payload's impossible verification chronology: its verified_at timestamp was later than the Git commit that contained it. No deadline or allowance amount is claimed.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
