Default Opportunities for young people in NZ

Hi All,

I'm guessing that the best opportunities for young people to make professional careers in NZ are in the cities of Auckland and Wellington. Would I be right about this?

Assuming this IS so then what are the prospects of 2 young people both of whom have first and Masters Degrees (MSc Public Relations) for building careers in New Zealand?

First thing to do is go up and check the Immigration information wiki on the main page (highlighted in yellow), and then to also check the Immigration New Zealand website to see whether there are visa programs that align with your family and career situation.

Yes. But. Maybe.

As the link above shows, PR Professionals aren't in any skills shortage. Seek.co.nz doesn't list many jobs even for the whole of NZ. I'd expect this is an area where "NZ Experience" will come to bite hard as most employers will want knowledge of the local Public you will be Relating to...and at the end of the day there are <only> 4.5M of public so a relatively small market for those skills I suspect.

Put your situation into the points calculator on the Immigration website and go from there...

Works for me also.

It is to the NZIS website. It states that PR is seen as skilled but not in shortage.
