Overseas students have diverse New Zealand Work Visa options upon completion of their higher studies in the nation. Every individual has a dream of having a perfect workplace after the completion of relevant educational qualifications. New Zealand is one such dream in the eyes of many international students who intend to work there after finishing their studies.

If a student wants to stay in New Zealand for work, an appropriate New Zealand Work Visa is required. This visa helps the international students to stay in New Zealand for work after the attainment of New Zealand qualifications.

A student might get to work in New Zealand for 4 years and even Permanent Residence which depends upon what kind of course the pupil has studied there.

A student who is interested to obtain the PR visa has to undergo the following two-step process:

  • The Open Post Study Work Visa helps the student by allowing him to stay in New Zealand for one year in order to fetch a job in the field that is relevant to the domain of the pupil’s studies. While the student is searching for the job, he is also allowed to do any kind of job so as to support himself.
  • The Employer Assisted Post Study Work Visa is the visa which allows the student to reside in New Zealand for a period of two or three years depending upon whether the requirement of the work experience. This visa adheres to a specific employer and a specific job.

It is up to the student that whether he wants to apply for the New Zealand Resident Visa which is subordinate to the Skilled Migrants Category. If the occupation of the applicant is enlisted in the skill shortages list, then this becomes a crucial advantage because it increases the chances of approval of the Resident Visa. Despite this, one has to pass the character check and the health examinations for successful approval of any type of visa.
