Working in New Zealand

Employment in New Zealand
New Zealand is a narrow country of Oceania and one of the most developed nations in the world. Its population is reduced and English-speaking reason why, more and more, it attracts a great number of immigrants from asian, Europe and Latin america.

accessing a work temporal or permanent visa depends, to a great extent on the work experience of the migrant, from his or her professional formation and from his or her age. The migrant ones of greater age are more prone to suffer chronic diseases, reason why they have fewer options of accesing to a work visa.

Now, the first thing that must be done by those people who wish to migrate to New Zealand to work, is to verify that their professional or technical career appears in the New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (NZSCO).

If the immigrant�s profession or occupation appears in the list, it is recommended to choose Skilled Migration Program, which accepts 45 thousand new immigrants every year, becoming the program with greater demand to enter into New Zealand�s territory.
 

another way to be able to work in New Zealand is requesting the �Working Holiday�. visa. This visa is looking for promoting the tourism between young people, who are older than 18 years and minors of 30 years, allowing the immigrant to work during a few months (maximum three) in some city of New Zealand. If the immigrant wishes to continue working, he or she will have to get hired in another city.

 Unlike the mentioned visas, this is assigned to very few people, which is why it is advised to be requested in advance.

It is important to stand out that, in order to be able to access the �Working Holiday�. visa, it is necessary to demonstrate that you count with sufficient economic resources to pay for you accommodations and your return ticket. It is important to mention that, whether the immigrant obtains this visa or not, it does not guarantee him or her getting a job.

The �Working Holiday�. visa is only valid for a year, without offering the right to neither renew it nor extend it. It is granted to the person only by once, that is to say, if the creditor of the visa does not use it, it will not be granted to him or her again. The proceeding to ask for the �Working Holiday�. visa is done online and is destined to migrant of certain countries, chosen by New Zealand.

another way to work in New Zealand is by getting work permission. This authorization to work in some New Zealand cities is given to people who entered to New Zealand as tourists and who found a job offer. The work permission is valid only for the time the job lasts and during the time the immigrant remains in New Zealand�s territory. If the migrant leaves the territory of New Zealand, he or she loses the permission automatically. Now, in case the labor contract culminates, the immigrant will be able to look for another job and then ask for the work permission again, otherwise he or she will become an illegal.

In summary, choosing the suitable visa can make it easier getting a job in New Zealand.
