The points system of the new Skilled Migrant Category is more complicated than it might appear at first glance and far-reaching errors occur when it comes to establishing whether qualifications, work experience and job offer match up and you qualify for the necessary points.
Working with us will boost your job search success.
Our Job Seeker Service will make a huge difference to your job hunt in New Zealand. Working with a local job search professional and starting well before your arrival in New Zealand will make you a strong candidate for the New Zealand job market.
Our Licensed Immigration Advisers will ensure that your job search goes in the right direction. They will give you and your Job Search Consultant visa specific advice to make sure that you only target and apply for roles that will align with immigration requirements. If your New Zealand employer requires assistance with their accreditation, we will be able to support them.
Together both services will help you overcome the Catch-22 dilemma: You need a job to get a visa and a visa to get a job.
The good news is that you can improve your points score!
If your current point score is three, four, or five, you can increase it by providing evidence of your work experience in New Zealand.
Each year of work experience in New Zealand earns you one point, with a maximum of three points for three years of work experience.
Your Licensed Immigration Adviser will guide you right from the start, to ensure that you will be on the right track and have the right visa while you gain New Zealand work experience towards your goal of securing permanent residence in New Zealand.
If you are 56 years or older and have already reached the age limit for the Skilled Migrant Category, one of New Zealands other visa policy might be an option for you. If you give us some details in our Free Assessment form we will assess your background and let you know if we think that you might qualify for a visa under any of the other visa policies.

“In contrast to another Immigration consultancy that we contacted, your company offered a free webinar and an assessment, warm, approachable staff that communicates openly with potential customers. I understand that your company is a fee for services provider, but that has not been conveyed as a prerequisite during the decision making process.”
At first, Maj kindly explained the whole process and what to expect. I was coached and introduced to New Zealand job market by their Job Search team, and getting assistance until I got a job in the country. The Visa team would also follow me up on my pending documents, so I never felt left out. Truly recommended for those seeking out an option to live in New Zealand. Big thanks from me and my whole family for things NZIC did for us..!
NZIC helped me in my way to get a Visa and job search. They were always available to talk to and were open to all sorts of questions. No matter how random they were. Very friendly staff. And even when they had changes in employee and advisors, they always stayed professional and up to date. I can only say good things and recommend them highly.
Very pleased and satisfied with the service we received from NZIC. They assisted me and my family from start to finish. Always willing to assist, and communicated our progress every step of the way. With their assistance we managed to obtain permanent resident visa status.
