Now in Wellington
Hi,
I had the same question last year. I work as well in ICT. I just jumped on the different jobsites from NZ and sent out my CV. Mid November last year I had the job offer and started with the immigration. Because a working visa is much faster then a PR I applied for this. I got a 3 years visa by beginning of January and we went 2 weeks later to Wellington. (It was all prepared and organized)
My wife, my daughter (8 months at that date) and me arrived well in Wellington after a 32 hours journey (coming from Zurich, Switzerland)
My wife and my daughter had only a tourist visa. They did the working visa (my daughter a visitor visa of course) here. By the end of February we had all a valid visa up to 2011.
Once my wife got the visa she looked for a job in ICT. No Problem. One week later she found a job by NZPost and I applied for PR. The fact that we both have a job, studies, ..., our EOI had 275 Points and was selected.
After we applied for the real PR.
We are still waiting ...
So, send your CV out, find a job, get a working visa, come to NZ, apply for PR
Good luck
