Hi,
I am Italian and at the moment live in Italy.
I am hunting job in Cape Town to get closer to part of family who lives in South Africa. I would like to know how does it works my job permit as well my resident permit in South Africa? Do the Company in South Africa who hire me request all documentf from there or the Italian Embassy in Cape makes it with the South Africa Embassy in Italy?
Could someone give me some tips ?
Thank you

You need to find a job and you need to apply for the permit. Sometimes the company can help, but in general this is your duty.

You need a job and a signed (indefinite) work contract. Then you apply in your country. once you have your permit you can legally start working in South Africa.
