Never heard of paracetamol ?? Did I hear that? What’s the alternative , if that wasn’t joke ..😊
Hello @nikitisza can a Full stack developer with 2 yrs of experience get a job in NZ? Or I still need more years?
@@ahud2352 Yes, that's the name in NZ. It's called acetaminophen in North America. No alternatives, I believe.
@@chess4964 You can start applying with 2 years of experience and see how you go. 3-4 years can increase your chance, but you're not exactly junior after 2 years, so there's a chance. Good luck!
Such a great mix of references, information, and personal experience! A must watch for anyone thinking about moving to NZ for an IT job. Such a beautiful country. That remoteness does have some drawbacks, like fewer options at the grocery store, but there is so much to explore in the country-- and the typical work-life balance you highlight let's you actually do it. Thanks for the valuable video!!!
Great points about the selection of groceries. Especially, if someone is coming from Canada or the US 🙂 Thank you for watching!
Very smart, well done Niki, thank you for making this 👍
You're very welcome 🙂 Thank you for commenting!
Amazing video, super informative and fun. Thank you! :)
Thank you Zoltan 😀 I am glad you liked it. I hope it wasn’t too long.
So much impressed by this video .. you covered a wide variety of subjects in such a short engaging way
Thank you for the kind words :) I'm really glad you find the video helpful! Thank you for commenting.
Thank you for the very valuable video, Niki! It is really what I need! 🙂
I’m happy to hear that! 😊 thank you for commenting
This is great Niki, thank you! I'm hoping to move later this year as a sysadmin. Just starting with our advisor and this info was very helpful
Oh, how wonderful! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Many sys admin work in NZ, especially in Wellington (consultancy and government space). Good luck with the move 🙂
Nice you where very much in detail and clear, Thanks for such hard work.
My pleasure!
This is what I've been looking for. Thanks for creating such an informative video. Supppahh helpful! We can catch up in the UX meet-up as soon as I get there with a job offer. 👋☺
Thank you for the kind words 😊 I am happy it helped! Good luck with NZ; it's a wonderful country.
Thanks very much! what a thorough video :) subbed. As a local kiwi it's neat seeing someone from overseas that comes across as a true kiwi too!
Thanks for the sub and the kind words. I'm glad the video came across that way. thank you for commenting 😊
Thank you for sharing.
of course! I hope you found it helpful :)
I’m a UX designer and planning to work and settled in at the same time in NZ. Thanks for the info. btw, it helps a lot.
Fantastic! Good luck with your move and job hunt! Thank you for commenting. I am glad you found the info useful 😊
Very good introduction video, I am a user experience designer, I really need to learn English quickly.
Thank you! I am super happy you find it helpful! Your English seems fine to me based on your comment 😊
Love New Zealand so much. I miss it there.
Yes it's a wonderful country, indeed! You should visit again 😊
Hey Niki, great video! could you please let me know let me know about the BA/functional consultant market in NZ?
If you have a couple of years of experience, it's super easy to secure a BA role, especially in a government agency in Wellington, so that's what I'd recommend you try. Contracting pays the best. However, the new government wants to reduce the number of contractors, so time will tell...
Consultancy is everywhere in NZ, but be aware of the terrible work-life balance if you start working for one of the Big 4s.
Thanks for the wonderful video Niki! May I know where did you get the salary ranges? I want to also get an idea of salary ranges for devops engineer. Thanks
Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you found it useful. I recommend Potentia & Absolute IT for checking salaries (this is a recruitment company I was working with in the past): www.potentia.co.nz/rails/active_storage/blobs/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsibWVzc2FnZSI6IkJBaHBBNjBtR2c9PSIsImV4cCI6bnVsbCwicHVyIjoiYmxvYl9pZCJ9fQ==--d8c13f1f2dc86cb20c4b03088a00276baa2d7344/Potentia-Remuneration-Report-2022-final.pdf?source=google.com and www.absoluteit.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Absolute-IT_IT-Job-Market-Remuneration-Report-2022.pdf I hope it helps!
So very nice
Thank you so much for putting up this guide for us all. I am setting myself to move to NZ in next 4-5 months as a student. I am taking MUXD programme at the VUW. I currently have around 1.5 years of experience working as a UX/UI Designer. And I really want to do my part time job in a similar field while I study in NZ. Does NZ companies, design agency/ consultancies hire UX Designers for part-time work. And how to secure this kind of job. Thank you, I am both excited and nervous 😄😄
Consultancy, no. Agency, sometimes - depending on the demand. Other private companies or government agencies, yes.
MUXD programme does offer industry experience, so your course coordinator should be able to help you with it 😊
Good luck with your move!
Hi, you promised a vlog about NZ"s resumes some time ago.
Thanks for the question. It’s still in the making…I had to stop working on it because I needed to prioritise other things in my life. But it’s coming. In the meantime, please enjoy some of my shorts. Thanks for the patience ☺️
Nice Video
Thank you for watching ☺️ I’m glad you find it useful.
Love New Zealand so much..
It’s a wonderful country for sure ☺️ Thank you for watching!
Hi Niki, can u guide us about writing a cv and cover letter regarding tech job
Hi! Sure, I actually made a video about it in the past if you want to check it out. Also, open the description box, and you can find a Gumroad link to a resource library I provided for free: ruclips.net/video/IjNSTLaWqoE/видео.html Good luck!
Hi Niki, your voice is really melodious ❤. I really love listening to you.
Can you suggest how easy it is for a foreigner to get job in data analyst roles after master's in NZ, considering he has BS (IT) and 2+ years of experience in finance job at MNC. Can the irrelevant MNC work experience help in getting job?
Oh, thank you for the kind words, I'm glad you like my voice 😀
I found that your best chance to secure a data analyst job is to apply for larger consultancy firms. Small companies usually can't afford to hire a specialist, so KPMG and PwC would be my first choices. Good luck!
Hi, thank you for the video. How much time do you think it will take to grab a job in new zealand IT sector after arriving there?
Thanks for the question. It really depends on a lot of things... Your experience, visa status, where and what kind of position you’re looking for etc. Message me through an email with your specific parameters, and I can reply properly to it.
Hi Niki. I appreciate the insight into IT jobs in New Zealand. I am an Engineering drop out with a total of 12 years work experience in automobile and IT. I specialized as a Senior Technician with Dell Technologies in India. Could you guide me what would be the best option for me? I am married with a 2 year old baby. My cousin is settled in Auckland for the last 18 years now.
Note: Excellent English Communication Skills
Hi 😊
Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you found the video helpful.
Your cousin might have told you the job opportunities are the best in Auckland, given the size of the city.
What's your highest qualification?
I know someone who doesn't have a degree but still works in IT and got his visa without a college degree. He holds an IT-technician Level 5 certificate, which was enough to secure a visa. He was around 32-33 at the time.
Please, email me. You can find my email address on the About page on RUclips. We can go more in-depth without you writing all of your information to everyone 😊
Very useful video, Is it possible to get a job in Nz from Offshore?
Yes, it is possible 😊 I talk about it in the video...check out the specific sections using timestamps in the description box, starting at 3:44 Thank you for watching, and good luck with your job hunt!
Hi niki！ I'm planning to pursue a master's degree in New Zealand, and I'm interested in the UX Master's program at Victoria University of Wellington. I would like to know about the career prospects for UX designers in New Zealand and whether there are ample job opportunities in Wellington.
Hi 👋 I went into details in the video. Things are pretty much the same…being an entry-level UXD and getting a job fresh out of school is challenging.
New Zealand is a small country, so job opportunities are better in Australia or other larger countries.
Hi ma'am Cold you please tell me what is the difference between UI design and development job position..Is it there position include in skill shortage list.?
Hi Milinda. UI designer designs the apps/websites (visual designer), while a UI developer builds the apps/websites. Different skillset. First is a designer, the second is a software engineer 😊
Hi, how is the ICT/tech community growth there in spite of NZ main field are agriculture, forestation & others.
Is it growing well and high demand nowadays since post-pandemic?
Btw, I'm looking for Data field jobscopes opportunity later on
Of course, there's IT industry. Here's some info you might find useful: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_technology_industry_in_New_Zealand
Hey, is service design role already common in NZ for now?
Hi Regi, thanks for the comment. Yes, service design is indeed a common job title in New Zealand. Especially in Wellington at Government agencies. I ran a few service design projects while working at PwC and worked with many service designers on engagements. Service designers require a different skill set compared to UX or product design. In New Zealand, service design is about facilitation, writing, bringing a wide range of views together, synthesizing the information, and presenting it in an easily digestible format. If you're considering taking a role in service design, there are many opportunities in NZ.
I'd recommend looking up Whānau-led design and Whānau-centred design, which is a unique differentiator between service design in NZ and service design in other countries.
I hope it helps 😊
I Will come to soon
Hi Nikki,
Your videos are very informative and helpful.
I have a question... I think you are the right person for it.
I have 7 years of software development experience, basically I am a fullstack developer and I am from India.
How likely it is that I would get a job in new Zealand and on an average how much time it would take.
Aw, thank you for the kind words. I'm glad you find the videos helpful.
Getting a NZ job offer really depends on where you're located and what kind of visa you have. Generally, it's much easier and faster if you're already in the country and have at least work visa rights. I'd say a couple of months.
Otherwise, if you're outside of NZ and looking for sponsorship, it can take a while...I'd seen people waiting for 6-12 months for an offer.
I hope it helps. Good luck with your job search!
What are the Career Opportunities with the skills of Microsoft Excel?
What can you do in Excel? Are you thinking of data analysis or data entry? I don't know much about regular office jobs with data entry, and for data analysis, you also need R and/or Python knowledge.
Im so Interested on working in NZ or Australia. Can a Full stack developer with 2 years of experience get a job offer there?
Yes, you can! You need to start applying with your resume, portfolio, and cover letter! Good luck 😊
any chance your company is hiring any senior mobile (android/ios/flutter) developer roles? i'm planning to be there once the border opens. 😁
I’m not aware, but keep an eye on the job advertisements ( I’m in a different department so I don't see those usually). Thank you for commenting and watching! Good luck in NZ 😊
Hi, i'm planning to study Master of User Experience in Victoria University of Wellington, is it hard to get a job in Ux in New Zealand after you graduate from a university in new zealand?
Hi, thanks for the question. I talk about this here 6:42 Entry-level jobs in New Zealand. However, it also depends on your previous experience...getting an entry job in UX design is challenging wherever you go (and NZ is no different). I'd recommend building your portfolio early on and having 2-3 top-notch case studies so you can stand out from the other entry-level applicants. I hope it helps 😊
Hi ～Niki, thanks for your video.I'm a entry level designer, and I'm interested in ur friend's experience of seeking a job.What did she do during the 18 months?Iare there any parttime chances to do or any benefit projects for fresh to practice what they learned?
She was doing office administration full-time and had a few opportunities to work on design-related projects for the company she was admining for.
Eventually, she got a job somewhere else.
Entry level is challenging - nowadays, even seniors struggle. I don't want to discourage you; be prepared for lots of networking.
Mam l'am Singapore working crane operator and wilder 8 year ..
Hi Niki, I'm Hazel from Cebu, Philippines. I'm a UI/UX Designer for 8 years. Is there any possibilities that I can find an opportunity in New Zealand while I'm here in the Philippines?
Hi Hazel, it might be challenging without having a visa sorted out, but that's how we got there too, so it's certainly possible. It would be best if you could secure a skilled worker visa or a working holiday visa (if you have those options available to you). Best of luck! thanks for watching
Is ielts compulsory for immigrant to New Zealand for IT job
Well, it depends what kind of visa you’re applying for. If you’d like to immigrate to NZ you do need to meet the minimum standard of English required by the New Zealand Government. Recently what happened is, the government provided resident visas without IELTS exams to people already living and working in NZ…so I’d recommend checking NZ immigration website for more details. I have the link in the video description. I hope it helps and good luck with your job search and application! ☺️
Hi Niki, Could you please tell me which occupation you applied for the resident visa. I am also a UX designer and wondering whether I can apply for "straight to residence" visa option through the green list occupation as a software engineer.
thank you :)
Hi Janani, I did mine 10 years ago, and that exact option doesn't exist anymore, unfortunately. You can look at job codes such as web designer or developer, computer scientist, and software engineer. This link might help: www.immigration.govt.nz/new-zealand-visas/options/work/explore-work-visa-options Also, check out the links in the description box; they could be helpful for you.
@@nikitisza Thank you. Really appreciate your reply. All the best.
hi niki tisza, i got admission offer letter from victoria university of wellington, for masters in user experience design. can you please tell, is it good to do masters in newzealand, How's job opportunities in newzealnd for ui/ux designer. Can i get pr?
Hi 👏 the master's programme in UX design is only a few years old at Vic Uni, if that’s where you’re going. It’s a great programme, and people value it. I assume you’ll start with a student visa ( which might let you work part-time too), and you’ll have a paid internship as part of the programme. Build your network. The internship will get you your first Kiwi design experience, so companies will likely choose someone with local experience. After you can apply for a work and permanent resident visa too…the last one takes time, though. A work visa is easier to get. Best of luck!
Hi ,
I'm from India nice to see your video
wanted to ask about cyber security job in auckland i have 10 months of experience in cyber security in India as i got engaged now and my fiance working in nzl and he has citizenship over there will it be fine 10 months of experience and easy to get a job in auckland?
Thanks for the question. There are plenty of cyber security jobs in New Zealand, you should definitely apply. I’d also recommend checking out large consultancy firms’ job ads. They always look for smart new talents to expand their group. Auckland is buzzing with opportunities ☺️ good luck with your job search.
Hi Niki! I am a Software Engineer here in the Philippines... Do I need to get my documents assess by the NZQA before I can apply for a job relevant to my field?
For job applications, you don't need an assessment. But for securing your visa, yes. It takes about 4-6 weeks to get the assessment done. Good luck!
@@nikitisza Do IT Companies there would accept applicants offshore?
@@nmcnickomusicchannel8242 is 4-6 weeks or months? NZQA is only required for residence VISA applications
Hi Niki,
I am doing my postgrad here in New Zealand and just wanted to ask what the scope is for fresh graduates. I don't essentially have work experience as such (I'm only 23), but am working on my portfolio. Is there anything you'd recpmmend me t do to make my resume/portfolio stronger/eye-catching?
Hi Shruti! Which uni do you study at? Most of them have some internship placement programme included in their syllabus.
Unless you have experience, it'll be hard to get a job in design - it's super competitive, and NZ universities have produced many fresh grads in recent years, so you need real world experience.
Check out my video on resume writing (I have a free toolkit you can download with so many actionable tips): ruclips.net/video/IjNSTLaWqoE/видео.html
Your portfolio needs to be better than other fresh grads; that's the key. There are many ways to stand out; I'll create a video about it soon. Stay tuned.
I wish you the best of luck! ☺
Thank you so much for your response! My Uni does have internships but I’m opting for an independent one because a lot of them aren’t UX related. Would an internship outside of NZ also be considered as work experience?
@@shrutishankar5322 Yes, any work experience would be good. However, if you'd like to secure a design job in NZ, I'd recommend applying for kiwi jobs 🙂
Hi niki i am sai from India working as customer service and sales specialist now I am planning to study masters New Zealand. How are the job prospects for international student after completion of studies. Can I get entry level jobs in marketing??
You can, but it's tough, like everywhere…it’s best to get some work experience through an internship and apply for jobs just to position yourself better.
Hi Niki.Thanks for sharing those useful infomation for me,I'm a WEB Developer (Front end) in China for at least 7 years, I want to go NZ to take Master degree in 2024,and I'm married and my son now is 2 years old.Could you give me some advice about which is the best city in NZ for IT people to find a job,or get practice opportunity(Aukland or Willington or Christchurch)?
Hi Nick! Thank you for watching. I’m glad you found the video helpful 😊
All 3 cities would be great for IT workers. Auckland has the most opportunities in the private sector. Wellington has fewer opportunities, but the government employs many software engineers for short and long-term projects.
Regardless of where you do your masters, Auckland or Wellington, you can easily find a job with 7 years of experience.
@@nikitisza Thank you for these useful replies！
@@nickzc2537 you're welcome! Good luck 😊
Hello Nikki. I've got my tourist visa. What's the best place to stay and look for jobs in graphic design or it industry
Hi! Congrats on your visa 😊
Auckland has the most job opportunities because it's the largest city in New Zealand. However, most companies offer remote work, so it might not matter where you live; you just need a good internet connection. NZ has only one time zone, which makes things easy collaboration-wise.
I only know one person who works as an in-house graphic designer, and she's based in Wellington. Most graphic designers I know are freelancers.
Getting a job in IT (e.g. UI, visual design) would be less challenging.
Try different cities to see which works best for you. If an in-person interview is needed, you can always fly. It's pretty cheap.
I hope it helps. Good luck!
@@nikitisza thanks so much. You are awesome ⭐ Im your new subscriber.
@@syed997 thank you! Enjoy the videos 😊
Hii Niki can we search the job on visitor visa as a software engineer? It’s easy to get job there?
Legally, I don't think you're allowed to...however, I saw lots of people doing it in the past. If you have a few years of experience and great communication skills, I'm sure you can secure a job fairly quickly.
Thank you for this very informative video.
Getting a job from outside NZ seems to be very very difficult.. What are the chances of a mechanical engineer to get a job over there(NZ) my hubby have been applying since January with no luck.. Was thinking of visiting and try to connect with people, understand the market and see if he can secure a job.
Do you think is a good idea?
What about data analyst and data engineer jobs , are they in demand
I wouldn't say they are in demand in NZ, but you can certainly secure a job. Larger consultancies would be your best bet, as smaller companies usually don't hire specialists.
@@nikitisza IS THERE ANY AGENCEY OR COMPANIES THAT OFFER VISA SPONSERSHIP FOR IT JOBS ? AND WHAT ABOUT YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH NZ HEALTCARE ? IS IT FREE FOR IMMIGRANTS AND IS THERE LONG DURATION WAITING TIME
what about 3d modeler and graphic designer
Not sure about 3D modeler, you need to research the area. Good luck!
Graphic design is tough…I talked about it in the video 😊
Hi Niki! Do you know if they hire remote ux designers? Thank you
Hi 👋 In the past, I did see it happening occasionally. It’s easier to work remotely from a different country if you already have those relationships established. For instance, you worked for x company and say, you’d like to keep working for them but you’re moving back to your home country. I hope it helps.
@@nikitisza That definitely help! Do you hire interns though from the U.S.? Thank you! I'm new to ux design and I'm currently enrolled in a bootcamp in LA.
@@hellokitkath3329 You need to check with each company to see if they hire interns from abread. I've seen large consulting firms (e.g. PwC, KPMG) doing that.
Hey can you tell about data analyst and data scientist jobs there . I recently completed my master degree in computer science from India. I will come there in 2023 . Can i get job there From India if i have relevant job skills.
When you have relevant skills and experience ( at least a couple of years), it’s fairly easy to secure a job in New Zealand. IT professionals are in high demand right now, everywhere. Auckland is much larger than Wellington, so applying for jobs in the area would give you higher chance to get hired. However, the Government and its agencies are in Welly, and most of them also support work visas. Give it a go and see how they respond. Good luck and thank you for watching.
What about data scientist jobs ? Are payouts good for 1-2yrs experienced personal…
It depends on what 'good' means to you 🙂 You gotta do your own research based on your experience, the region you want to live, and the money you're expecting. But I'd say, with one year of experience, nothing pays that well. You need to be an intermediate professional, at least. Also, companies rarely support visas for juniors. Your chance to get your visa supported increases with the experience you have, 3 years should do it. Best of luck!
@@nikitisza thanks for the advice, it's very helpful see u in newzealand when I'm 30 😂
Name Thomas Henry from Nigeria how can I enter new Zealand from here Nigeria pls can you help me give me some ideas can help me out
Hi Thomas. Unfortunately, I cannot give you immigration advice because I'm not familiar with those specific details you're after. I included lots of free resources in the video and the description box. I hope the links are helpful to you. Otherwise, please read through the New Zealand immigration government website for further details. Best of luck with your move! Thank you for watching!
A great video. By the way, where are you originally from? Greetings, J.
I am a born and raised Hungarian. Thanks for commenting and watching 😊
@@nikitisza Thank you. Did you use any agency for visa, or just did everything yourself? Would you do another video about writing resume for a NZ's
job market? Just giving a couple of examples would be a beneficial bonus for your subscribers. I am not in Tech branch, however, I found this video so universal. All the best, J.
Hi Joanna 😊 No, I didn't use any agency. We've done everything for ourselves. Some people do engage with visa advisors...we didn't think it was necessary, but it's up to you. Oh, you're going to like the next episode, it'll be about Resumes 😀
@@nikitisza Thank you, Niki. :-) So, I am looking forward the next episode. :-) Ps. I also like your English. Was it so good from the beginning of your arrival to NZ?
@@joannab1688 oh, thank you 😊 my English was already good ( IELTS 6.5) on arrival, and now I have 8.5 - there is not much difference between the two, but I definitely improved it during the years
I want to move to NZ, but for me (from the USA) I am looking at 1/3 to 1/2 the pay for software engineering...
Well, that's a trade-off for sure. NZ doesn't offer the Silicon valley kind of salary; that's absolutely true. However, if you do contract work in NZ, you can easily reach 250K (if you're at senior level) in a month with only 40 hours work, no extra hours. People usually move to NZ for the lifestyle...and 250K would give you more than a comfortable life & allow you to enjoy and explore this beautiful country. If you make the move, good luck with the job search. Thank you for watching!
@@nikitisza what I’ve found is it’s like 250k NZD which is very low compare to 250k USD
I understand. It really depends on what you value at this stage of your life. I don't know your age, however I’ve seen plenty of people moving to NZ in their 40s when they were ready for a slower lifestyle.
@@nikitisza I’m 35 now. I would love a slower lifestyle but I still need to afford a home!! There is a good chance we will still seek the move.
@@boot-strapper I totally feel your pain regarding a home. Especially when we look at the property prices right now... I hope you can get a home soon, and maybe a slower lifestyle is just a few years away :)
Hey niki , just wanted to know that where are you from ?
Hello! At the time of making this video, I was living in Wellington, NZ ☺
@@nikitisza I meant that what is your native country 😊
I got tourism visa

I'm not familiar with the curriculum of an MBA, but I assume it depends on the subject area. You need to do your own research, as I can't help.
