Could you guide me on how to find job opportunities that align with my qualifications and any additional steps I can take to improve my chances of employment?

I would like to seek your advice on job opportunities related to my qualifications. I currently hold certificates in fire fighting, first aid, and administration, and I have been studying Occupational Health and Safety (Level 4) this year, awaiting my results. I live in Ondangwa, Namibia and am looking for a job in industries such as mining, factories, or other workplaces where my skills and certifications would be valuable. *Note: This is an anonymous question submitted by a learner.
