Default Job update

James, sorry to hear about the bad luck, but I'm sure it's good to be out of Auckland. Welly and Chch are much better, IMO.

How long have you been in NZ, again? 6 months already? I'm curious to have more detailed information on how long they'll let you extend beyond that, since you said you could extend another month easily.

Care to share, when you get some time? I'll be looking for employment there, so any tips/knowledge will be helpful. I imagine it's all about contacts - knowing people, since most ICT companies in that area are quite small.

Enjoy the South Island, and good luck with the job hunt.

J
