CompassJobs

Recognizing the enormous importance to Clients of being able to secure a job offer from overseas, CompassJobs is focused on providing advice on job hunting and dealing with New Zealand employers on your behalf.

If you’re a Skilled Migrant and you want to make the move to New Zealand, under Immigration New Zealand policy, you will need an offer of employment that matches your skills and experience in most cases.

If you’re coming to join family you may be in a category that requires a job offer.

Even for those who do not strictly need a job offer to qualify for a visa, chances are you’d still like to have the security of knowing you can live comfortably, maintain your professional path and get the social contacts you will make through work once you arrive. Having a job can also speed up the granting of residence.

CompassJobs is not restricted to helping principal applicants, but can also extend to helping partners into work.

Matching candidates with prospective employers is our speciality. Employers want to hear from candidates who are serious about relocating to New Zealand. They also want the reassurance that you are committed to the migration process and will be able to get the visa you need to legally take up the position. Candidates acting alone are often unable to get a foot in the door because the employer has no way of knowing whether that person is eligible for a visa or permit and may well be reluctant to risk making a job offer, however good the candidate is on paper. Candidates who come to them through Compass, on the other hand, have already been assessed as eligible for a visa and are therefore much more likely to be offered a job.

We have highly skilled and experienced recruitment consultants on hand to help you with your job search. We deal with both recruitment firms and directly with New Zealand employers, so are not restricted in the jobs that we have access to. Due to the time zones, we are also able to contact prospective employers for you while you sleep!

Under CompassJobs we have two main areas of work;
• Customised CV for New Zealand
• Compass Targeted JobSearch

Whilst we do not guarantee to place you in a job, we do undertake to get you in front of the right employers offering real jobs to maximize your chances of success. In a tighter job market, a tailored job search makes good sense.
