On 27th July, the same pattern was followed. Seems that they are preferring more on those people who have job offer or have jobs.
But I saw the same kind of pattern in Jan-2009 & Jan-2010.
Seems that this gets repeated once in a year & can occur at any stage.
Strict policy in Australian SMC can be one of the reason for this but we have to wait & see is it like this or not.
New NZ immigration policies seem to be more targeted towards ones with jobs or job offers so that they get those ppl into NZ who can benefit its economy.
Lets see...how things unfold.
