Our advice is to start this step of your migration process as soon as possible. This will allow you to speed up your visa application process when you are ready to submit your visa application.
If you are applying for your visa under the Skilled Migrant Category, you will almost certainly need a job offer to meet visa requirements.
You are now caught in the Catch 22 dilemma: No visa without job and no job without visa.
At this stage of your visa process most immigration agencies will say: "Come back to us to start your visa application once you have a job offer in New Zealand."
Until you succeed in obtaining a job offer, this is where your visa application process will come to a standstill.
Here at NZIC we say: "Working with us will help you get through this barrier in your immigration process."

“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 found your website and it was very detailed and informative. 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.
