 Liz Knot, Physiotherapist from United KingdomHi there, I'm Liz and I am a physio from the UK. I spent almost one year working on my plans to come to NZ, but they have all come together now. I have been here one month and it is all going well.
The Kiwi houses are a bit cooler and it is hard to understand the kiwi accents, but it is all part of the working holiday! I had been to NZ before on a visit and decided I liked Christchurch and I stopped there to visit Prudence Shaw, I met up with her again when she came over from NZ on one of her recruitment trips.
We had an interview which she videoed and then once I had my registration, and she had reference checked me, and asked and answers loads of questions, she presented my complete application to a client in NZ. He phoned me and by the end of the 45 minute conversation, I HAD A JOB!! AND I got offered the car to use for a while – it is all registered and has had its safety test (by the NZ road rules) and it goes well!
The registration was a VERY long and frustrating process – but it eventually was processed. The immigration was a breeze - it took me under one hour, once I got ALL the paper work together. I was picked up from the airport and taken to my house which was organized for me.
The work is quite different, the paper work takes a bit of getting used to, but the patients and treatments are all the same. It is a bit slower that the hospital I have come from, but all the same it is a good pace to start off with.
It is a great country to be in and the people are great!!
