Director of Information and Communication Technology

JobwebZambia, operating from Ghana, has long copied and mirrored job listings from Gozambiajobs. As this practice has become harder to maintain, the same behavior is now being directed at our site.

The repeated appearance of identical job posts raises a simple question: what value does Jobweb actually provide? Copying from GoZambiaJobs in the morning and JobSearchZM in the afternoon is not curation — it’s exploitation.
