Matters needing attention in New Zealand work:

1. Generally speaking, students who have obtained a student visa for more than 6 months can work, with a maximum of 20 hours per week, and can work full-time on holidays without applying for another permit. For some students, they are not allowed to work at all during their stay in the UK, because their passports will be stamped with the word "no work", and they usually attend courses for six months or less.

There are many opportunities for students to work part-time or during holidays, such as fast food restaurants, restaurants, telemarketing, teaching, marketing and office work. Information about short-term jobs can be obtained through the following channels: the vocational office of the school; Vocational center, which is the employment agency where the school is located, serves the public; Billboards in schools;

Advertisements in local newspapers; On local holidays in Britain, such as Christmas and Easter, many shops will post job advertisements in their windows. Tell your friends, teachers or landlords about your job hunting intention. Maybe they will know some recruitment information to make it easier for you to find a job.

3. New Zealand has strict regulations for international students to work outside school. Applicants who hold a legal student status and have been enrolled for more than 9 months and meet the general standards can work in a company recognized by the Immigration Bureau or the Ministry of Labor with the approval of the school's international student consultant. The work is valid for one year, but you can apply for an extension. Once illegal workers are found by schools or immigration authorities, they are likely to be repatriated or even banned from entering New Zealand for life.

There are fewer restrictions on working on campus. Students can work part-time in the school during the semester, but the working hours per week should not exceed 20 hours, but they can work full-time in winter and summer vacations, and the working hours per week should not exceed 40 hours.

Looking for a part-time job on campus, you can often go to the international student center, the bulletin boards of various units, the campus network, and the clubs of the student union to inquire. Generally, there are vacancies in offices, restaurants, libraries, dormitories and other departments on campus. It's just that there is a general demand for part-time jobs on campus, and you need an interview or even a resume to get a chance.
