The NZ PSW visa enables you to:

• Be employed with any employer in New Zealand in any occupation provided you hold a qualification of degree (level 7) or above.
• Be employed in an occupation that's related to the field of your studies in case your qualification is a non-degree (level 7) or below; the qualification you hold also has to be on the list of qualifications that has eligibility for an NZ Post Study Work Visa.

One thing you should remember is that the NZ PSW visa can be applied for only once.

So, what if you lodged an application for your Student Visa on or before May 11, 2022?

In that case, you could gain eligibility for an NZ PSW that works like an open work permit in New Zealand. You could work in the country even in the case of your qualification not being on the list of qualifications eligible for a PSW visa. It’s also necessary that you must have a qualification that’s acceptable.
