Unemployment falls to eight-year low
Over 100,000 jobs were created in the last 12 months in New Zealand, a recent report by Statistics New Zealand shows. At a current 4.6%, unemployment has been gradually falling in the last 5 years, despite record gains from net migration. Certain New Zealand regions now have unemployment below 4%, with some regions getting close to full employment.
Naturally, certain industries are struggling to find qualified staff, and have to turn to overseas talents to meet their needs. Construction, trades, health, education, are amongst the many industries that will offer jobs to migrants with the right skills.
