What are the dos and don'ts of finding a job in New Zealand?

Hi,
NZ job market is very different than many other countries. Few following things to be considered while preparing.

1-   CV format is very important.  NZ has a specific format and that is given at careers.gov,nz
2-   Many recruitment agencies are quite actively seeking employees, however the bad point is, that they end up hiring people for casual or part time jobs.
3-   Best web portal to apply jobs in NZ is   SEEK.com or INDEED.com but there are others too.
4-   Referrals play an integral part in finding a job. 90% of the jobs are based on referral basis which somehow makes sense too as the employers look for people who know the work with a minimal training.
5-    Many employers prefer to hire people with prior NZ experience which is impossible for  a new comer. Hence many people find it hard to get professionally employed. My suggestion to new comers is, that no matter if they find a job of their interest (part time), they should get it. It gives a precised experience of work in this country which leads to further full time employment.
