There are many students studying in New Zealand, so are New Zealand students easy to find jobs? It must be a concern of many people who go abroad. Let's take a look at studying in New Zealand to find a job! Welcome to reading.

Is it easy to find a job when studying in New Zealand?

1. Overall employment situation in New Zealand

Many students and parents think that New Zealand is a small country with few employment opportunities. In fact, when we look at the employment situation of a country, we should not only look at the size of the country, but also look at the employment rate of the country. You can refer to the employment situation of some mainstream countries studying abroad.

The unemployment rate in the United States is 9.6%

The unemployment rate in Canada is 7.9&;

The unemployment rate in Britain is 7.8%

The unemployment rate in Australia is 5.8%

The unemployment rate in New Zealand is 5.5%.

From the data, we can easily find that in some popular countries for studying abroad, the unemployment rate in New Zealand is relatively low, which means the overall employment rate in New Zealand is relatively high. Although the country is small and there are few employment opportunities, New Zealand has a small population base of only 4.5 million. Basically, everyone can find a job that suits them, and the pressure of job competition is obviously less than that of populous countries such as the United States and Britain. I have been making an analogy with students. Beijing is the capital of China, so there are enough job opportunities. However, people from all over China and even foreigners come to Beijing to work, and the competition pressure is very great. So it is not easy to find a satisfactory job in Beijing. Therefore, it is inevitable that the unemployment rate of inexperienced and unskilled college graduates in Beijing will remain high. Therefore, we should not only look at the number of employment opportunities, but also pay attention to the structure and employment situation of the whole country.

2. The key to finding a job in New Zealand

Although New Zealand is a country with a low unemployment rate, it doesn't mean that you can lie down and look for a job. Whether you can find a job depends on two key factors. First of all, your transcripts at the University of New Zealand will be required during the interview and employment process. This is very different from China. In China, you can show off your diplomas from Tsinghua and Peking University. In New Zealand, employers generally don't care much about which school you graduated from, but they care very much about your academic performance. If your academic performance is "flying at low altitude" and you fail in several courses (as long as you fail, whether you retake the exam or not, it will be written on your report card), then I'm sorry, no one will hire you, because people will think that you didn't work hard during your study. How to work hard when you come to work? Therefore, the first law of finding a job: study hard and keep good grades. Secondly, emphasize the poor English level. General recruitment process will encounter telephone interviews and face-to-face interviews.

During the interview, the interviewer will test your English communication skills. Simply put, you can understand what others are saying and express your thoughts more freely. I have met some students who study hard and get good grades, but they seldom communicate with others and their spoken English is poor. For such a person, the employer will think that you can't understand what I'm saying during the interview. How can I communicate with you in practical work? Therefore, the second law of finding a job: make full use of the language environment during studying abroad, communicate more with classmates and friends, or take a part-time job to improve your English communication ability.

3. The relationship between major choice and employment.

New Zealand's long-term shortage of majors, such as nursing, preschool education, accounting, engineering, computer, western food, automobile maintenance, electrician, etc., make it easier for students to find jobs under the same conditions. Of course, no matter what major is in short supply, students have to pass the interview evaluation and screening after graduation. The more shortage of majors, the employer's requirements for grades and English will be appropriately adjusted and reduced (but it does not mean that there is no requirement), and vice versa.

For example, there is a shortage of nurses in New Zealand. If you have a bachelor's degree in nursing in New Zealand and a registered nursing qualification certificate in New Zealand, you can find a job smoothly through simple interviews and exchanges. If you graduated from human resource management, this major is not in short supply in New Zealand, and most of your competitors are local graduates in New Zealand. During the interview, the interviewer will put forward higher requirements for your grades and language. If you are really excellent, no one can stop you from getting the job. If you are not good enough, it is really hard to find a job. Therefore, it is suggested that prospective international students should correct their mentality and expectations, reasonably choose their majors under the guidance of overseas experts, and strive to improve their abilities during their study abroad. Employment and immigration will no longer be empty words.
