4. Role of NZ Visa Jobs

NZ Visa Jobs provides an online job advertising platform through which Employers may advertise employment opportunities and Job Seekers may search and apply for jobs or make their profiles available to participating Employers.

NZ Visa Jobs also provides participating Employers with access to available Job Seeker profiles where this functionality is offered.

Employers independently review applications and available Job Seeker profiles and decide which Job Seekers they wish to contact, interview or employ.

NZ Visa Jobs does not act as the employer of any Job Seeker and does not make hiring decisions on behalf of Employers.

Unless expressly stated otherwise for a separate service, NZ Visa Jobs does not select, shortlist or recommend Job Seekers for employment. Employers are responsible for conducting their own assessment, interviews, reference checks, employment checks and hiring decisions.

5. User Accounts

Users may be required to create an account to access certain features of the Site.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for activity conducted through your account.

You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your account.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

6. Fees and Payment

Access to certain features or services offered through the Site may require payment of fees. Any applicable fees will be communicated before the relevant service or feature is purchased or used.

All fees are in New Zealand Dollars (NZD) and are inclusive of GST unless stated otherwise.

Payments are non-refundable except as required by law or otherwise stated in our applicable refund policy or service terms.

7. Job Advertisements and Job Seeker Information

NZ Visa Jobs may review, edit, decline, suspend or remove job advertisements or other content from the Site where we consider it necessary to maintain the quality, integrity, security or lawful operation of the platform.

Publication of a job advertisement does not constitute an endorsement of the Employer, the employment opportunity or any claims contained within the advertisement.

The availability of a Job Seeker profile on the Site does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation of that Job Seeker or a representation that the Job Seeker is suitable for a particular role.

Employers and Job Seekers are responsible for independently verifying information provided by other Users before making employment or other decisions.

8. Immigration and Visa Information

NZ Visa Jobs is a job advertising and Job Seeker database platform. Use of the Site does not guarantee eligibility for a New Zealand visa, visa sponsorship or any particular immigration outcome.

Any general immigration-related information displayed on the Site is provided for general informational purposes only and should not be treated as personalised immigration advice.

Where personalised immigration advice or immigration application assistance is required, this must be provided separately by a licensed or otherwise legally authorised immigration adviser.
