Good evening.
I need some guidance on something.
I am a South African who would like to relocate to New Zealand on a permanent basis. But as you know, a work visa in New Zealand is dependent on a Job Offer - which is normally dependent on having a work permit / work visa. This paradox serves as a difficult blocking point which I need to get over.
I am looking for Project Management positions in the IT Industry of the country. I am 29 years old, single and come from a background of electronic engineering which led to Electronic hardware and software testing. Ultimately, this led me to managing IT / SDLC projects.
The last project I managed was featured in a Dutch online newspaper here.

Cover Letter - https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=2 … ile%2cdocx
I have come to understand that it is very difficult to find a job while not in New Zealand. There are some immigration agencies that claim to assist people find positions in the country but I am very skeptical of them and they charge unbelievable fees. Thus I would like to avoid this route if possible.
Is there any alternative to this? I have put my resume and cover letter on the links above for any interested party to review my work and provide any networking opportunities which mayhelp me find a position in New Zealand.
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thank you.
Regards,
