Hi,
For the past few years my partner and I have been planning and researching a move to New Zealand.
This week we accepted an offer on our house, looking to complete in 8 weeks so now it looks like the move is definitely on!
In the meantime we have been searching and applying for jobs (my partner in IT consultancy and myself in marketing) We have had a good response but most agencies want to talk when the house is sold and we have a date of flying out etc.
So, Im suddenly a little overwhelmed by it all.
I think we need to decide whether to throw caution to the wind and quit our good UK jobs (40K and 28K salaries) and go out on a WHV in the hope of securing work (hopefully permanent work to process a visa) or to stay in the UK with family for a few months and plug away at securing job offers and visas for a while? At least this way if we did get a job offer we just have 4 weeks notice to work, rather than waiting on a house sale etc.
Any thoughts or experience would be welcomed.
