we are going over in September as a fact finding and hopefully job finding trip. Really want to go to Queenstown as we have friends there, but unfortunately going to have to go wherever I can get a job. All down on my shoulders as hubby doesn't have a dregree!! also feel pretty dim compared to all the teachers, nurses etc going, I need something in business and finance or travel jobs, only they don't seem to want to take on non resident people.
Boy job searching is so catch 22

I trained as a beauty therapsit years ago and found it on the OSL so I spoke to a few beauty therapists in NZ and they said that NZ are crying out for them. Not sure why Hmmmmmm lol!!
So I am going out as a Spa manager for a Spa in Wellington. One of the beauty therapists I have been in touch with is the one who is HOD in an Auckland College. She is Scottish and reckons that I can get a teaching job with her no problem.
Have you looked at Wellington for finance jobs? I think thats where most of them are in NZ.
Good luck!!

My husband registered on the site for us and this is a North yorkshire word for friend, don't ask me why. I guess it's better than PICKS which is nickname.
Stooly has in stool, not the sitting type. That's what I thought when I met him.
