My girlfriend and I are moving to Auckland in October 2008. I am coming on a work visa as an accountant and should be able to support the 2 of us for a little while on my salary. We are still in the visa application phase and hoping that we get approved as partners and she can come under my visa. She has just finished up her Masters degree in education to teach primary school here in the US. We are hoping that she can wait to find a job teaching once we arrive as we are hoping she can work close to where we live. Does this sound like a good idea? Based on other threads on here it seems like others are having troubles finding teaching positions before they arrive.
What documentation should she bring to apply for a teaching job? letters of recommendation? original transcripts? Other? Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Danny
