Now is a great time to come to work in New Zealand, and ARC New Zealand will give you a great start to finding a job!

New Zealand is looking for skilled workers in many different fields: engineering, agriculture, construction, health care, hospitality and many more.

You may apply for a job in New Zealand. You may be able to come with a working holiday visa.

ARC New Zealand will help you to be successful here.

To work here and succeed, you need three things: With our ARC New Zealand programmes, you will:
1. A job 1. Receive help in finding a job
2. A full understanding of life and work in New Zealand 2. Learn about life and work in New Zealand
3. Really good English 3. Make sure your English is good enough for you to start work

Our Programme includes a number of services to help you find a job here:

Language Assessment
We have our own test to help you and employers understand your level of English. This is based on the real needs of the workplace, and shows whether your English is good enough for the job you want to do.

Language Course
You may take either a twelve-week language course or a six-week language course. Most people will need the twelve-week course, but some people who already have a really good level of English may find that the six-week course is enough.

Your Language Course includes work-specific language, and on certain dates you may combine it with preparation for Cambridge examinations (First Certificate, Advanced or Proficiency), IELTS, TOEIC or TOEFL.

• receive individual help in preparing an error-free English curriculum vitae (cv)
