True , NZ does encourage permanent migrants with itsL immigration policy . Qualified persons have a significant advantage , where hairdressers are rated as desirable as engineers . However , the application process for permanent migrants takes 3-6 months in London and longer in NZ itself , requires Police background certificates and so on .
Casual visitors may not wish to engage in this process , if they do , there is info on
www.immigration.govt.nz/work/
There may be opportunities for casual visitors to pick up work in their profession and risk of deportation adds a bit of spice to life anyway .
