CV Submission
Join the NZ Visa Jobs Job Seeker Database
Skilled migrants can create a profile in the NZ Visa Jobs job seeker database so participating New Zealand employers can discover people with relevant skills and experience.
Two ways to use NZ Visa Jobs
You can apply directly for live job listings on NZ Visa Jobs, or create a profile in our job seeker database so participating employers can search for people with relevant skills and experience.
The database allows participating employers to independently search available job seeker profiles. NZ Visa Jobs does not select, shortlist or refer candidates through this database service. Creating a profile does not guarantee employer contact, an interview, employment, visa sponsorship or a visa outcome.
Create your profile and be discovered by New Zealand employers
This database is for skilled migrants who want participating New Zealand employers to be able to discover their profile and contact them directly about potential employment opportunities.

Employers Search

Create Your Profile →A job board and employer-access database
NZ Visa Jobs provides the technology platform, job board and job seeker database. Through this database service, NZ Visa Jobs does not recruit, shortlist or select candidates on behalf of employers and does not send CVs to employers as a recruitment agency.
Participating employers independently access the database, search available profiles, decide which job seekers they wish to contact, and manage their own interview and employment process directly with those job seekers.
Creating a profile does not guarantee employer contact, an interview, employment, visa sponsorship or any immigration outcome.
Want to apply for jobs directly?
Creating a profile in the database is optional. You can also search live job listings and apply directly for suitable New Zealand roles.
