Expo New Zealand

If you’ve found yourself getting a bit tired of the charms of London or maybe just the prices and felt like starting over somewhere completely new you might be interested in the Opportunities New Zealand Expo taking place this weekend, 5-6 April 2008, at Olympia in West London.

The expo is aimed at people who might be thinking of emigrating Down Under and provides information on the type of skilled people New Zealand is looking to encourage to move. Immigration New Zealand will have a stand at the expo to explain and answer any questions on visas as well as hosting a series of migration seminars throughout the weekend.

Emigrating to New Zealand requires four key things, you are under 56 years of age, you have a tertiary or trade qualification, you have at least two years work experience and you have been offered a job in New Zealand. The expo aims to help you with the last one by bringing together representatives from New Zealand’s top employers and recruitment consultants who will have hundreds of jobs on offer.

The Opportunities New Zealand Expo runs from 9.30am-4.30pm Sat, 10am-4pm Sun at Olympia Two. Kensington Olympia on the District Line is the nearest Tube (Map). Tickets cost £12.50 online or £15 at the door.
