Default WHV into a work visa...NZ

Has anyone out there gone over to NZ on a WHV and managed to get their WHV transferred into a work visa? I was wondering if you got a job on your WHV and managed to secure a more long term job offer with the employer if this was possible?

Yep - I went over on a WHV, then obtained a work permit, then work visa & finally PR.

As Don says, NZIS have no problems with people doing this at all.

Drop me a PM or reply to the thread if you have any specific problems...happy to help.
