Hello there,
I'm applying for GIS jobs in NZ from abrought. (GIS=Geographic Information System)
With a job offer for such a job I could immigrate into NZ as a skilled worker.
Finding vanacies is not a problem and I have sent 8 applications in the last half year. This only resulted in one skype interview with a recruiter. This recruiter told me that my CV is good (content as well as English).
For my applications I only get rejections, allthough my CV is good (I think).
My questions are:
* Do NZ employers have to prioritize NZ candidates when they have a vacancy? In other words: is it possible that my brilliant , but foreign CV is blown away by one OK-ish NZ candidate?
* Can anybody tell me how the market is for GIS jobs? I see enough vanacies, but I haven't got a clue how many people are applying for such jobs. Maybe the other candidates are simply better then me.
I'll be happy with any response on this subject.
Regards,
Ducky8
