advice on work visa
 

i want to travel next year but will need to work at sometime to sustain the traveling. i'm too not concerned with migration status, really a permit to work.

australia seems bureaucratic, only appears to contain working holiday (which ive already used) or full migration. so now i'm considering n.z. which seems more straight forward.

unfortunately i'm too old for their working holiday visa so ive got to apply for a work visa. however it looks like obtaining a work visa & finding a job while i'm out there does not seem feasible.

can some confirm i need an offer of employment. i don't qualify for the special categories or exchange schemes

seems i have too choices; hedging my bets, on trying to find a job on a tourist visa & getting it upgraded or General Skills migration.
