I'm just replying to say I'm sorry to see nobody has answered. I guess there isn't anyone around among the members at the moment who works as a truck driver. Have you tried Googling for job advertisements?

Hello JandM and Thanks for your answer, don't be sorry it's not your fault, it's Christmas so everybody is busy.

Googling for job advertisement and get some information about rates etc ... yes i did that before ,the things is the company for who I work think that I'm a idiot and they said to me ,in Nz the driver earn between 20&23$ max per hours flat rates no overtime etc ... and i need a real proof for show them and stop them talk S*** ,
I don't know all the rules and law in Nz . For example about the contract, when you apply for the essential skills work visa you have to provide an INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEE AGREEMENT CONTRACT to INZ , but after when you get the visa you have to sign a new contract! No?? a Permanent contract?

Thanks Gran for your reply,i will see this !

Sorry for the mistakes in English .

Under the heading New Zealand job offer, here https://www.immigration.govt.nz/new-...ZL&applying=no is what I found about what you have to give as proof of the job. I don't think you need anything different from that original, offered contract, to continue on an Essential Skills visa (because the visa will have been issued for a length of time that makes sense under the terms of the contract, for instance, if you've been offered a one-year contract, INZ won't give you a two-year visa). But if you then wanted to apply for Residence afterwards, you'd need the offer of a permanent skilled job.

I found this https://www.careers.govt.nz/jobs-dat...-truck-driver/ about rates of pay - that's from just last month. It's not that different from the rates mentioned in this article from last year. http://www.stuff.co.nz/timaru-herald...river-shortage
