Hi my name is Shannon. I am new to this site and Im looking for any information that can help make the move to NZ. My husband and I are both bored with our jobs and are looking to travel to NZ and work for a few years. Who knows maybe we will end up staying!!
However with that being said I am not so sure how easy it will be to find a job.
This point system really messes me up however from what I have calculated neither one of us has enough points.
My husband has his AZ license (license to drive a transport truck), currently he is working as an armed guard for transporting money to/from Banks.
For the life of me I cannot find any business's for armed guards in NZ.
I am a customer service rep (for 11 yrs) a dime a dozen job, however once I arrived in NZ I am willing to work wherever to pay my bills and travel.
We currently rent our home and have a small debt I would like to pay off before packing up and moving for a few years.
Am I crazy to pack everything up put it in storage and take off for 2years or more? Especially since I am not even sure if we can gets jobs once we arrive in NZ?
I have been to Nz approx. 6 yrs ago on a 3 month back packing trip so i kind of have an idea what NZ is all about. This will be a new experience for my husband!!!
If anyone has any thoughts or ideas I would love to hear from you.
