Hello,

Hope all are well.
I'm a 33 yrs old father of 3 looking for work in construction. I've been running my own business for the last 10yrs we make custom furniture, restore and revamp old furniture and kitchens. So I'm familiar with carpentry, wood, cabinet making and painting.

How do I go about job hunting do I stay this side and look for work from this side or should I come to New Zealand and look for work there?
What visa do I come over with when looking for work?
How much time should I allow myself to look for work?

Any information will be much appreciated!!

Thanks in advance.

There is so much work available for someone with your skills. I don’t know the legal and immigration necessities, but your skills are much needed, so you should check with the immigration department in New Zealand.
