Hi

I have total 7 years of work experience in IT (Presales and Technical)

4 years - self employed
4 years - employee

This year I missed on applying the job search visa. Is it possible to go to NZ on a visitor visa and look for job and attend interviews? Will I get interviews?

While applying for visitor visa (tourist visa), should I mention that I'm going to look for jobs?

Any suggestions would be great.

thanks,
Krish

Visitor visa is just for visiting.

Best you look online at the NZ Govt immigration website to see what sort of visa you need to get a job.
