Everyone should check out the NZ immigration web site . As of tommarrow, the requirements have changed a lot under the General Skills category. You HAVE to submit a job offer with your application. There is no more issuing of the 6 month visa to go and look for a job in New Zealand while your PR application is pending. And the job offer must be relevant to your qualification...no more non-relevant job offer points. It is getting harder. Good luck everyone.
