New Zealand Employment
The New Zealand workplace is generally a very casual atmosphere. In most industries, business attire is a lot more casual than many other countries and co-workers, even bosses, are rarely referred to by title. New Zealanders place a great importance on achieving a work-life balance and sometimes offer flexible working arrangements such as job sharing and home based work.
Employers typically advertise for employees in local newspapers and online. You may even be able to seek work before you enter the country through a job search website. Once you are in New Zealand, you can sign up with a recruitment agency, who will find you a job based on your skills and work experience. You might also find employment through friends, or by handing your resume out to appropriate businesses.
If you are a student with a variation of conditions on your visa, you may work for up to twenty hours during the academic year and full time (thirty eight hours per week) during the end of year break. Universities generally have organisations that help students find work. You should also check the noticeboards on campus. Student Job Search is a recruitment agency run for students by students, that can help you find work that fits around your study.
