FAQs
It depends on your study, work and migration history, personal relationships and circumstances. We can assess your situation and advise on your optimal migration path. You can explore visa options on the Immigration New Zealand website.
We can help you obtain a visa to attend a job interview. NZ employers prefer face-to-face interviews and know that your ability to adjust to NZ culture and lifestyle is critical. So be prepared for an employer to suggest you travel to NZ at your expense, so they can assess you and you can assess the country before anyone commits to employment. If you make this effort, it can make all the difference. But do your research first – especially on pay rates and regional variances.
While skilled employment enables easy entry to NZ, long-term residency depends on your age, qualifications and English language skills. To overcome barriers, we can design a personalised plan that may include up-skilling and English tuition while you continue to work in NZ.
Inclusion of partners and children depends on your job’s remuneration and skill level. Children are able to attend New Zealand schools for free while their parents hold work visas, but not universities. We recommend creating a roadmap for the entire family before you emigrate.
