hi, my boyfriend has just been offered a 3 year contract in new zealand. I want to follow him over. Where do i start? do i register first?, do i apply for a working visa or residency? please help?

Hi, you can contact Kirsten in New Zealand she is Therapy worklines NZ agent but she deals with all aspects of recruitment in your occupation in new zealand as well. Check out her web site at http://medicalstaffing.co.nz If you could let her know that Andy from Therapy Workline in the UK recomended you to her it would be appreciated. Good Luck

Hi!
i've been working in nz for the last couple of years. you must register first and start asap as it's a lengthy process! you could apply for a working holiday visa which lasts one year and prevents you from taking a permanant job or you get a job offer first and then apply for a work visa which lasts for longer. with this visa if you change jobs you have to pay for a change of conditions of your visa but that's relatively straightforward. or you could apply for residency which is more expensive and more involved but you wouldn' have any restrictions on working - it's quite difficult to qualify for residency. check out the nz immigration web site - that should give you all the info you need - don't bother ringing the embassy in london - it will cost you alot of money and you'll get through to an automated message. the csp also has advice on working overseas - just ask them for their nz handout. there's heaps of jobs!
hope this helps
