I need help...for a job oppurtunity in New Zealand?


Question:
My name is Ramesh and I am a computer science graduate from UK. I have been looking for job in NZ for 2 mths in IT field but nothing has turn up. I am desperately looking for an oppurtunity to migrate from Malaysia to NZ if i have a job. I was told by the NZ embassy tht its easy to get a working permit if i hv an job offer. I recently got separated and i want a change in life. I am earning a good pay here but i just want to a change in lifestyle. If anyone has a good opening, i dont mind sending my resume over. My expertise has been in operations and project management for telecommunication and ISP industry in Malaysia. Appreciate any help from anyone. Thank you

Answer:
The problem with NZ employers (and I'm assuming any other foreign country) is that they will be reluctant to hire potential job seekers if they cannot meet them face to face. A lot of IT workers have been able to secure job offers by coming to NZ as a tourist and then apply for a work permit to be able to start work. Would it be possible for you to do the same?

NZ has a different lifesyle than the UK, although working conditions are different and salaries are lower, life is better over here. I moved to NZ nearly 2 yrs ago and have not looked back, I'm not a skilled worker but I enjoy my life here because it's slower paced than Paris and London, where I used to live, and people are very friendly as well. My salary is equal than the one I had in London. I understand NZ isn't a country for everyone but it was the right move for me :)

Have you looked at the NZ immigration site? There are plenty of details there:

Good luck with your decision!
Don't limit yourself to NZ, although it IS a fun place. Canada, U.S., OZ and many other countries can be equally easy to migrate to if you have a job lined up and meet other criteria (education, age, etc.)
Hi, I know there is work opportunity in Australia but know nothing about NZ as Australia is thousands of kl from NZ and we are two different country's.
Hope this help. Waltz
go to Australia becasue:
NZ has a kind of social complexity that you do not encounter in any other country.
It is a small isolated country. So what you think the major source of income is. Of course it is agriculture and tourism.The problem is because salaries are low most educated people leave for better income overseas. This creates a big problem.. As I said it is a small country.So what do think people might feel when most young generation emigrate. Well they feel they are invaded by foreigner migrants especially Asians, Indians and others. For many years white people dominated the country and Maories were lower class citizens. When the white young generation is emigrating the country, fear of losing the power and fear of losing the working class (age 16-45) can cause a hostile environment towards new comers….If you spend some time with them you will see how much they adore and admire themselves and their younger ones compared to other nationalities no matter where they are from…..This is a dominant culture…even if a kiwi commits a crime if the victim is not a main stream New Zealander the chances that lawyers and justice protect their own people is quiet high. Because they want to keep their people and stop them from leaving. This culture exits in all of them .Almost all of them…politicians, doctors, lawyers, taxi drivers, farmers…..almost all of them maybe because they want to teach them to value their country and stay….however because tourism is their biggest source of income over many many years of dealing with migrants and foreigners they know they need migrants for their money….I have never seen any other nationality in the world being able to rip off so skilfully as kiwis. They make a slave out of you. They make you work for free. Most skilled migrants are young, motivated, energetic and have some saving. They come to NZ to make a better life. They spend some of their best years of life, the first five years after leaving their country to work hard to achieve nothing instead. I have seen many families break up, I have seen many of them get depressed. A lot of them leave NZ after a few years of putting up with abuse, some leave for Australia, some go back to their home country. Some of the migrants who have some kind of support network and can stand the abuse or work as selfemployed may stay and instead the way they cope with this culture is they turn to be like their kiwi abusive mates. I have seen some of them start cheating, stealing and exploiting others to be able to mentally integrate into the society around them and of course some of them do none of these and stay the way they were but in a less motivated, depressed slavery mood. Ironically when foreigners get ripped off by kiwis they get blamed for not being careful. I have seen young rich Japenese students who get bashed and their money get stolen but instead they will get criticized of being careless. Kiwis have this mentality that foreigners are rich, are pain free and they have their money because their mummy and daddy gives them their money and they do not work hard for it so they deserve their money to be taken away from them because this is the kiwi land and if these foreigners want to stay here they should help us with our economy. We are the best people in this world, our country is the most beautiful country in the world, our government is the least corrupted government of the world(of course that is the other way round), our graduates are the brightest in world, our poo and wee is from gold and because of all these all non-kiwis should adore us and pay us lots and lots of money because we deserve it.
Your best bet is the job websites or recruitment agencies - google search will turn up dozens - email them your resume and be prepared to come over to NZ for interviews.
Unfortunately unless you possess skills unavailable here you would be unlikely to get a job offer without a face to face.
Also work on your english presentation. When I have advertised for candidates in the past I was disappointed with the standard of presentation presented with the resume.
