how would i emigrate to NZ what skills would i need?

Answer 1

Immigration programs tend to focus on skilled migration. This differs between countries, but usually you are look at university level qualifications and skills.

Here are some general rules for immigration.

Recognised university or college degree (or other qualification in a high demand trade)
Work experience in that area.
Special area skills (some qualifications are in high demand around the world. Teachers, nurses, doctors, accountants, engineers and scientists. The UK has a special program for Social workers).
Be married (if you immigrate with a wife or husband, you are more likely to stay)
Have a family (taking your children with you also helps)
Have lots of money (The USA lets you migrate with $1,000,000 for investment in a new business, Australia and New Zealand have similar programs, but a little less money).
Be young and healthy.
Get a job offer before going to that country.
Be sponsored by someone living in the country.

One alternative is to go to that country and study, then seek work. It is usually easier to do than apply from overseas.

Good luck.

Answer 2

I am a brit, and have looked into emigrating to Oz, Canada, and N.z. Of the three N.Z. looks to be the easiest. I know a few people who have left for N.Z recently and have had no problems. They were in construction trades. Go for it and good luck !!!!!
