New Zealand is a country of immigrants. What is the work visa after graduation in New Zealand?

New Zealand is an immigrant country with a loose immigration policy. International students can automatically obtain a work visa and apply for permanent residence after graduation. After graduation, students can also apply for a 2-3 year work visa with the employer's work Offer. So, what are the requirements for applying for a work visa after graduation in New Zealand?

New Zealand post-graduation work visa

When applying for a work visa in New Zealand, the applicant must hold a valid visa. During the 6-month open work visa period, if the applicant has solved the job security related to New Zealand education, he can apply for a postgraduate work visa for up to 2 years. Of course, if the applicant finds relevant job security before the expiration of the professional student visa, he can directly apply for and obtain a graduate work visa within 3 months after the expiration of the student visa, without going through the step of applying for a 6-month open work visa. There are two requirements, one is to find an employer after graduation, and the other is to find a job after graduation.

1. Requirements for students to apply for work visas from employers

The work must be related to the content of studying in New Zealand, and students can apply for two or three years at most (if they are certified by relevant New Zealand associations and meet the requirements of applying for trade associations, they will get a three-year work visa). The information provided includes the certification letter and graduation certificate of the employer, as well as the type of work of the major the student has studied on the immigration list.

New Zealand students must apply three months before the student visa expires after completing their studies, unless they hold a graduation work visa.

2. Graduation work visa

If students can't find an employer after completing their studies, they can apply for a one-year graduation work visa, and after finding a job within this year, they can be converted into an ordinary work visa.

The requirements for applying for this student visa are:

1) successfully completed the course and is on the list of skilled immigrants in New Zealand.

2) You must apply for a study visa in New Zealand three months before it expires.

3) The financial guarantee is NZD 2 100.

Students with graduation job-seeking visas can engage in any kind of full-time jobs.
