Bignotia, Aug 31, 2007
The door of New Zealand (NZ) is wide open for skilled foreign workers and
professionals because of the current labor shortage in several industries.
People who have a great chance to work and live in New Zealand are those
whose occupations are included in NZ’s Immediate Skills Shortage List.
It is also important that applicants meet the required years of experience
and other qualifications to be offered a job and issued a work permit in
New Zealand. Applicants need to comply with the immigration requirements
of New Zealand. Fortuately, it said that the migration system of New
Zealand is one of the simplest in the world.
New Zealand has a Skilled Migrant Program to encourage foreign workers to
move to New Zealand. The program works on a points system and the
following are important factors to consider:
Below 56 years of age
Has a tertiary or trade qualification
At least two years work experience
Has a job offer in New Zealand
The list shows the professions that are in demand in New Zealand
nowadays.
