Had to go and find somewhere quiet and out of the way to tell Hubby. all I need now is to find a job out there and we are off :D Friends coming round today for a celebration:drinkwine::beer:

Thanks everyone for your advice and help

Fantastic news. Congratulations.:beer::drinkwine: Enjoy celebrating.

Hi guys,

Had telephone interview last Friday, now have dreaded immigration finger. Keep checking e-mails etc. hoping to hear.

Roughly how long did it take from having the interview to hearing if you have been successful or not?

I have been really patient over the past year, knowing that each stage takes time, but this last bit is really agonising!!!

Thanks for any input.

just shows u how unprepared i am! didnt even realise u had to have a telephone interview! OMG what on earth would they ask??

You only have an interview if you don't have a job offer. It assesses your ability to find suitable employment & settle in NZ, and have you done any research into the move.

There is a thread for the links to other threads with the sort of questions that they ask.

AAAagh! can't find the thread with the links that Persephone aka Sue added - anyone??!!??

Hey,

Thanks Sjake!

Berni - I searched for threads containing interview and got a list of questions. I have prepared answers and we are reviewing all week to make sure we cover everything.

I will let you know at the weekend how it went!

Hie

Please can someone out there tell me its normal to wait 3 weeks for an interview response. OH had interview on 11 June 2009 upto date no response from CO. Just noticed from others posting their time lines they have an answer after a week - london branch. We were requested to submit via Wellington branch may be because OH is from Southern Africa thats just my thinking. This is the hardest waiting ever.

thank you
:)
