The saying is that we have 2 degrees of separation in New Zealand.
What does this mean?
Because New Zealand is a relatively small country and New Zealanders are generally well-connected, it seems that everybody knows somebody who knows somebody.
Word of mouth is a trusted source, and connections play a crucial role when it comes to finding the right fit for a position.
As a result, only 30% of all job opportunities are listed on job platforms or websites.
The remaining 70% of roles are never advertised, they will be filled through networking.
