Let's look at what employment and immigration opportunities it has to offer international students.

Part-time jobs

Supplment your education

While you're studying in New Zealand, you have the right to work for up to 20 hours as a mode of extra income while studying

Post-study work rights

Working it out

Depending on your education level, you get an allowance to work in NZ after your degree on a study visa. For example,  at a degree level, you can work up to three years. While for a one-year diploma course, you only get one year of work allowance

Immigration and permanent employment
