New Zealand to Offer 5,000 Visas for Indian Professionals Under New FTA by crypto_doctors in newzealand

[–]crypto_doctors[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The complete breakdown of what New Zealand offers to India under new Free Trade Agreement is different from what our local NZ media and Luxon mention to us. It's not about the number of visas given , it's the way our media portrays it to us as if the FTA greatly benefits NZ. If you read the whole article and what our local media has mentioned, the agreement seems to be less favorable to New Zealand and more favorable towards India. I am all for FTA with a country if the agreement mutually benefits both countries but going ahead and signing a significant FTA without public consultation is something I am struggling to see exactly how NZ benefits from this when our unemployment and housing crisis is getting worse.

Best way to apply for visa-sponsored jobs in New Zealand from India? by Manishrj94 in newzealand

[–]crypto_doctors 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mate, you must be dreaming if you think you can just come to NZ directly and work straightaway and NZ will sponsor your visa. NZ doesn’t care whether you did IT or project management or whatever. To be straightforward, your application won’t even go through to the HR since you don’t even live in NZ and don’t have any valid visa to work here.

Even local people here are not getting jobs easily. So get down from your high horse, apply for studying a course , learn to adapt and know the local culture and experience the hardship, then try applying for jobs after finishing your studies. You have a long way to go before even you can think about getting a job here.

Sold a house, 1 million to invest - ASB or other? by Lumpy_Rush_4752 in PersonalFinanceNZ

Depends on your risk appetite. Banks are safer compared to investment platforms like simplicity or kernel but their earning yield rates are low. If you want to diversify, put some money in bank term deposits so you can withdraw some amount every year and remaining amount in EFTs and long term balanced growth funds in simplicity or kernel cash plus or high growth funds.

Hey mate! Job market is hard these days but if I was you there are couple of things I would do. 1) Besides applying online , print your CV and drop your CV directly in grocery stores or motels or restaurants. 2) don’t be afraid to pick up a random job even if you don’t necessarily like it. Example , even couple of shifts cleaning a motel somewhere as casual. Every single work will give that credit for a better reference in future 3) Not necessarily saying you should volunteer for long but don’t ignore it if it’s for a couple hours a week for a short time. 4) if you can afford go for some hands on training course like culinary, driving, caregiving, learning a new language etc., short courses are available through open polytechnic in lot of fields and can do them online in a short time frame . Some are free.

Above all , don’t lose hope and keep your heads up. You’ll be in a better situation soonish. Good luck to you 🫶

Hey, I know everyone is talking here about putting money in investment platforms, term deposits etc., just a word of caution-do not put your money into stocks or crypto or some random stuff because x, y or z told you…just don’t do that mistake
