Thanks for painting every American with the same brush. Because every single one of us loves guns, loves gas guzzling cars and loves to bomb people.

That kind of sounds like a fun time waiting to happen.... just saying.

I suppose it varies by sector but I found that no one was willing to even look at my application until I was in the country--it might be different if you're able to fly over for interviews but I wasn't in that position financially.

Once I was over here I managed to get a job in around 2 months, but my experience was marketing/copywriting and editorial--luckily a role opened up at the local university as I arrived. My OH (the guy who worked in US immigration mentioned earlier in the thread) is having a harder time of it and hasn't found anything in the 7 months he's been over her.

Hit amd miss I worked 20 years in UK before going to NZ and working 4.5 some would be prepared to interview over phone/skype others expected me to hop on a plane and attend an inteview with 2 days notice (hello it takes 30 hours to get there!)
just keep at it recruitment agencies are the worst there taditional saying is when are you coming over I will perhaps put you forward once I have met you!
