Shouldn't you have had a job to apply for a work permit ?
Just go to any Staffing company and apply there, since you have the work permit.
That is, if you can change jobs with the permit.

Hi Depak,

if it is ICT visa, then i m afraid, u can not change company with that VISA. U'll have to go back to ur home country and apply for workpermit( temporary residence Visa) On this visa only u can work... Else u have other option.

if you have 5 years of exp in current field of expertise and your skill comes under rare skills as listed by SA immigration authorities. u can apply for visa , go to SA and look for a job, though u get only 3 months to find a job and get it transfered in the name of ur new employer.

I to got a visa which is vlaid till next year, but that was filed by my ex employer.

best of luck, I'll get back to you on staffing company ID soon.

Cheers
A
