I have been trying to recruit candidates from Europe to work in our physio clinic here in the South Island and we have experienced a lot of the frustrations that you new grads have. We have been told that you do need at least 1 years work experience and that new grads are unlikely to gain registration here. I sympathise with you all because we have the opposite problem to the UK, we have the jobs but no physio's to fill the vacancies. If any of you out there do gain registration (which you need to before accepting a job really) we are keen to talk with you about jobs we have here. We wll pay your registration fees and return flights and accommodation once registration has been obtained. It is so worthwhile to stick with it and gain registration because NZ is a wonderful place to live and work.........it really is. For more info on our jobs contact me [email protected]
