New Zealand is currently facing a huge shortage of

Tapping In To International Talent
Across the board, industries in New Zealand are dealing with the challenges of recruiting in a competitive market. The construction, industrial, health, and manufacturing sectors are among the hardest hit.
With massive demand for candidates but not enough to go around, employers are in a race to secure great talent. As a result, local candidates have their pick of opportunities.
NZ Jobs Search goes beyond local. By proactively tapping into the global talent pool, we help employers to recruit the skilled candidates sorely needed in New Zealand.
Bridging the gap for employers
Scouting the talent you need
Making The Complex Doable
We know that employing a migrant worker is more complex and time consuming than hiring local. If there wasn’t such a skill shortage, very few employers would do it.
That’s where NZ Job Search comes in – providing advice, guidance, and smoothing the pathway for international candidates and Kiwi employers to connect.
How we do it
By setting up dedicated marketing campaigns targeting in-demand workers in specific countries, we connect with hundreds of eligible applicants interested in working in New Zealand.
Candidate services
The journey from a first inquiry to a job-ready candidate takes time. Having qualifications assessed, preparing a CV, and finding out what is possible are all part of the initial process. Candidates may also need to find out about options for a partner or their family. It’s not a decision that will be made lightly!
These candidates need help and advice from an expert on the ground to make the transition. We help candidates get prepared and make sure they are eligible and ready to go for a job offer in New Zealand.
We can advise them if they need to get an IQA, give them an indication of the jobs available in New Zealand, the salary expectations, and what their job would look like. Our immigration partner can also help them with partner and family visa advice.Why Use Us?
