Thank you :)

Yes, you are fortunate by the sound of it 😄

@@millennialimmigrant5600 I also noticed that the level of management is better in EU(I have worked in Hamburg, DE for a year 2015). No offense to the locals. 🤔

thank you for your comment :)

Are you an artist in an anime industry?

Your a bullshit

Yea but its nz im from Germany been all over the globe and there is no other place as unique,beautiful and free as this country. Been living here going on 7 years. Lived in Australia and though you may find better money you will never get a more down to earth culture as here. Far more safer more friendly then anywhere on the planet in my opinion..

it is an option :)

Yeh should be cheaper in other cities, but not sure if by much. Probably only marginally

You can’t buy houses unless you have 1.3 million dollars and win the auction

Thank you for your comment.

@@millennialimmigrant5600 can you send your namber

Why can't you and your partner go back to your birth counrty

Hi Katrina, I don’t have personal experience with searching a part time job in Germany, but I see there are postings for student jobs and overall part time jobs are common in Germany. Plus the study system is different to NZ, in Germany you mostly need to submit a project or do an exam at the end of semester, and don’t have to really do much or go to lessons in between which is good if you are working. So i think it’s doable but still would be a challenge to be fully self sufficient with only part time job. Maybe consider to apply for some scholarship. :)

Hey Katrina, depends on where you are headed. In larger cities there are plenty of opportunities. Are you still planning to come to Germany? I'd like to take the same journey but the other way round. Headed for NZ. What's your major?

Yes this was the purpose. I also wish I knew it way before, and people would be open about their experiences, instead of people openly only saying “nz best country in the world” to avoid criticism, but not even believing it themselves. It took me many years, many situations and many people to realise nz is definitely not for me.

It is definitely not the place for me to live in. Again only my personal choice, not intended to encourage/discourage anyone to move/not move there ...

You can go to Invercargil. It is still cheap and many new 5 stars hotel just build n will be done this year.

Thanks

many NZers move to Australia but not many Australians move to nz, so if you can go to australia right away, why not :)

@@millennialimmigrant5600 oh thank you for your advice

Hi Jai. Thank you, I appreciate it :)

not sure what's scary:) from my understanding recruitment agencies are usually little help in the process of getting visa. their clients are employers, not employees. so unless a person has unique skills their client wants and they cant find such person elsewhere, i dont think they will be very helpful. The biggest recruitment agencies that comes to mind would be Hays, yet I doubt they will be useful...

@@millennialimmigrant5600 thank's a lot

I'm interested work in New Zealand. How do go. Now I'm in Singapore

Thanks :)

Thank you :)

You mean all over the world

@@kawaii89123 Yes, including Saudi Arabia, Cuba, Vietnam, Thailand and North Korea

hi there, it is hard to give such advise. I can only say in general if you can immigrate for example to australia directly, I would do that, as you more likely will have more opportunities there. And lots of immigrants to new zealand eventually move to australia after getting new zealand passport. New Zealand is a very small country, the salaries are not that high there comparing to the costs, and I personally did not have a work life balance, living in NZ. Plus it is now take years to become resident in new zealand as the residency applications are massively delayed.

@@millennialimmigrant5600 ma please how can I apply for NZ visit Visa

Hi I live in New Zealand and there's no work life balance. And the pay is shit too. But I do feel safer here. That's about it

@@someonesomeone313 Agree. Wages low, it's bloody expensive to do anything - even petrol and heating. Rent is prohibitively expensive in the cities and cities suck. Small towns are graveyards for retirees, no-hopers, and bogans.

I have experienced all 4 by the grace of God. What I love about nz is the beaches and nice places to do walks. Plus I haven’t experienced harsh racism like the one you would experience in the USA

thats a hard question, born in russia, grew up all over, my mother is kazakh :)

thank you

thank you for the comment, did not mean to upset you though. It is peaceful and beautiful, I never said anything different. But there are other things that I don’t like unfortunately

I looked up the list. I'd say for a chef or of course ICT specialist its possible to get a job with foreign qualification as I saw many examples, but I would imagine for health professional they would still require some sort of local re-qualification, yet I am not an expert, so factcheck :) regarding "easy" it depends on luck, e.g. some IT people come and find job within month with tourist visa, others can struggle for lots of months even after finishing local courses...

Dina please talk about work visa.

@@bdmahboob527 just did o(^_^)o

germany :)

DINA even better! Keep safe! Don’t mind the trolls here, what you’ve mentioned here are all true... what NZers need is to be shown that the standard here isn’t good enough and we should fight for what’s better

Thank you! I appreciate your support. Yep NZ allows immigration to solve its problem like lack of skilled workforce and population ageing, so it’s only fair to provide good living condition and not treat immigrants as second class citizens...

@@Ilegnam some cultures like New Zealand can’t stand some criticism. Is fine. I live in nz and yes it was tough but thank God I grew stronger and met the love of my life here.

Good day people, I want to migrate to new Zealand for my master's degree program... Nice choice?!

Oh I hate that indirect communication thing. Too polite to be honest. They can’t handle direct respectful confrontation.

We could be opposite, but unless u r super rich, u probably spend most of ur time working. So I would check online the salary for your job in nz, net pay, and then cost of rent, buying freehold house in the city in nz that you are planning to move too. 😉 like Hamburg is dark and moody, but at least I can have decent standards of living so I ll take that 😁

@@millennialimmigrant5600 I am originally from the South and Hamburg was so tough. Northern Germans are so different. I felt like being in another country.

I appreciate your comment

lol questionable but thank you :)

Exactly you said it yourself” in most populated areas”. Seoul is densely populated! Many people live there and want to live there. Nz is absolute opposite to being densely populated. So there is no justification for crazy prices for carton boxes

Here in Chile, most of us can't even buy a 50 square meter house, ever.... So 16 years sounds fair 👍🏻

@@lamissdanyopp5136 well I doubt many people look at chile as the country to immigrate to. Yet if you consider to immigrate I would imagine you would try to go to the country where standards of life are much higher otherwise what is the point of leaving all your life behind only for a slight improvement if any

@@millennialimmigrant5600 that's true. You must go to a country with better standards of life. About Chile, in spite of being a South American country, it's the one with the better standards in the region and we're currently suffering from a major immigration problem, since a bunch of Venezuelans, Bolivians, Ecuadorians and Colombians are coming like there's no tomorrow. Although some political issues and things like we're talking about right now here, Chile is really beautiful as a tourist destination. Maybe you should come visit some day.

@@millennialimmigrant5600 a carton box would be nice. 😆. Not even close to carton boxes

Thank u but I am fine where I am :)

Go better to Canada mate

How about my parents never thought me to ride a bike, and there aren’t always dedicated bike lines so I would have to go on the same road with cars , plus quite often I had to work more then 12 hours a day - doubt given all of the above your advise to put me on the road would benefit mine or anyone else health lol plus yeah why to solve the problem of poor public transport , let’s pretend it is not a problem instead

Also biking in cold foggy windy winters and rain is very inconvenient

cool :)

not recommending anything to anyone, just sharing my experiences ...

@@millennialimmigrant5600 are u stil in nz....if u are.then should try to go to better country....good luck

no, i left to germany... thank you for your wishes:)

Why should she leave new Zealand? Even though, I'm expecting to be there. Please, help me for information from this country

You are not attractive enough anyway stay where you are.

well I guess I do not get it either :))

As a Kiwi, I don't want to disagree with the majority of the video content; I think everybody has to really look hard before changing country. But couple of things seem like misunderstandings rather than real issues about living here. One is that the comment about people renting 'can't even hang a picture hook'. New regulations have fixed this and tenants have right to make minor changes. Pets may not be allowed in a rental, but the comment about friends not being allowed to visit or stay is odd. Nobody has restrictions on people visiting if you rent. This lady was renting in Parnell.. a nice and very expensive suburb in Auckland, though NZ houses are badly built as a whole. I can't disagree with the opinion expressed in this video ; everybody has the right to their own opinion, but couple of the facts stated really don't seem right

@@GrantBlackNZ thank you sir for your honest opinion, my son just finish his LLB university of london and he willing to work in kiwi soon. as a father i can only wish him all the best. hopefully kiwi is the best for him to start working compare here in malaysia.

@@shamsudinbahrudin570 Hai. I used to work in KL for a bit in 2018/2019, so know a little bit about what it would be like. Everything will seem more expensive if coming to NZ. Malay people also find NZ cold; but I know some enjoy having proper seasons including some hot days in summer rather than just hot and humid all year around. NZ English is also a little bit different from UK English and Malay English, but something that can be picked up when you live in a place. Food can be a challenge as well - Malaysia is rightly famous for tasty cheap street food, but NZ food - while it can be have high quality ingredients, is expensive and unlike KL where you can get food anytime at night, in NZ most places are shut down relatively early . But if your son can bank some NZ dollars (was ~3 ringgit for 1 NZ$), then he can return to Malaysia with good experience and money.

@@GrantBlackNZ thanks for the explanation given, myself will accompany my son to go there. About the cold weather there to me is better than the hot weather in malaysia. I found the price of the car there is also much cheaper than in Malaysia. Besides that i want to get an autograph signature from Jacinda Ardern if possible because i really like her :) when the country's borders are opened, my son and I will be there as soon as possible. thank you once again :)

The key word is “new” regulation. I was already gone by the implementation time. It’s really funny though so the government kinda say “hey you will work all life but won’t be able to get a decent house but here you go you can put a nail in the wall of your cold rental property” XD most young single people and not so young and not so single rent rooms in Auckland not entire place, and if you rent room the rental contract frequently say if you can or cannot have visitors and on what conditions, or it is stated verbally. I have rented I guess at least 7 rooms and that was always brought up. Have you ever rented a room in nz and how many Since you are claiming my facts being wrong

hi sorry, nothing I can help you with :)

agreed

Germany is good enough lol

I am an immigrant and I owe 0 houses:)

In early 2020Ers .many imergrints brought many houses because they were inthere opinion were. Very cheap hence they brought many sending house prices thew the roof and they have just kept going up

Living with 8 other people and paying 200 a week is not wasting money, in NZ it is living very cheap in a suboptimal room. Again I lived in nz for 7 years, and all that time I was listening about the property bubble and the bad quality rental properties and how it all needs to be addressed. 7 years later still only hearing the same with bubble being almost twice as big. I am not really into wasting another decade, hoping for miracle, only to find out that it got worse.

@@millennialimmigrant5600 Same. Kiwi here - came back five years ago, wasted five years. Can't wait to get out.

Ah, the countries that the Western world exploited and destroyed through centuries?

Love your comment Farida, could not agree more …

Hey Michelle! Thank you for your comment! I am glad you like my videos. Sorry, I don't have Instagram yet. But I am happy to answer any question here. And hopefully it will also be useful for others o(^_^)o

@@millennialimmigrant5600 Thanks Dina for your response. Basically, I plan on doing my Masters (in Business or Marketing) in 2021 (Jan intake preferably) However, I was a little concerned on the job opportunities post my study in the above field. Also, I do not have any relatives in NZ. Keeping in mind the NZ first initiative, racism and other filters, do you suggest the study in NZ move? Also, could you shed light on the PR possibilities for those who have studied and worked for a good amount of time the country?

@@michelledsouza8649 If you are not absolutely in love with new zealand (i.e. want to live on remote island and hike away and don't care about anything else) and rather just want to immigrate to a developed country to have a good level of live, I would advise against immigrating to new zealand. I would better consider other countries for example Australia and Canada. The costs of education I think would be about the same, but those are big countries and offer more opportunities. And if you are ok with learning a language other than english you can consider for example germany or other european country , as you can do your master in marketing in English for free, have german courses also for free and there is a also a limited english job market, but better to know the language of course. New zealand is tiny, the job opportunities are limited, and almost everyone I met found job through connections. Regarding PR I have a video how I got it, while it wasn't easy for me, comparing to the current rules it was a walk in a park. I cant predict how it will be in future, but I dont expect it being better, as on the news all I hear was "immigrants that immigrants this", and immigration being the biggest "problem" whenever there is an election, like there are no other more important problems. You know that now people have to wait almost a year to only be assigned an officer for PR application. www.wsws.org/en/articles/2020/07/20/nzmi-j20.html All my friends I met in new zealand have already left or actively contemplating to leave to other countries. And I also already immigrated to other country. Just my personal opinion :)

@@millennialimmigrant5600 Can't thank you enough Dina for being absolute honest and granting me clarity. Well, I am surely going to rethink on my decision now and hopefully make a wise move. However, I am really curious - Why would you migrate to another country if you have already received your NZ PR? I am assuming it has to do something with the job opportunities?

Yeh I have Nz citizenship already and I had good job by nz standards .. I moved as nz is not the country I want to live till the rest of my life and I believe I could have better opportunities elsewhere in terms of career, family, health and lifestyle:) some people do love nz, so just my opinion that I came to after 7 years of living there

yes I do not own a house in new zealand. are you trying to shame me with that XD lived in new zealand for 7 years, met many kiwis, most of them were renting in their 20th, 30th, 40th, and some ven in 60th (white it was different for older generation). the ones who were able to buy a house only did so with the help of their parents. even your PM is trying to address the problem saying "Ardern said she didn't want home ownership in New Zealand to be determined by whether or not your parents for instance, can lend you a deposit." Plus check out official statistics on housing. so if you have an urge to hate on truth, then start with your government that made housing unaffordable for ordinary hard working people without parents, who already own a house.

Most Kiwi's have their lives bankrolled by their parents and just hang around waiting for the inheritance. For the record I do my own my own and still think this country is a 3rd world shithole and counting the days till I leave.

not too many immigrants rather too few houses ... cuz if more houses will be built, the prices for existing houses will decrease ... and the rich people in new zealand do not want it ... please dont be delusional - immigrants are just used by politicians as scapegoats in order to blame and protect their own interests

​@@millennialimmigrant5600 You're actually not a Kiwi so have ZERO idea as to what you are talking about, NZ has had unsustainable immigration for over a decade without the infrastructure and resources to cope now we see KIWIS living in tents and cars meanwhile foreigners in our homes, our beaches and rivers polluted and foreigners forcing low wages in employment. Thankfully our government is taking long awaited steps to fix our chronic unsustainable immigration problems, also the indigenous Maori who consented to British colonisation through Treaty Of Waitangi have historically had ZERO say into our immigration system, a clear breach of Treaty Of Waitangi our founding document enshrined in law, so instead of just making things up to suit your narrative try learning the history of this country, you're a mere guest here with zero bloodline or connection to the land!

@@natedagr8zt blood doesn't make a person educated on certain topic ... so new zealand was closed for a year for all immigrants but housing prices still increased by 20 percent ... NZ will improve once it will stop blaming others for their own policies )))

@@millennialimmigrant5600 Again, you can make your own foreigner fairy tales up to suit your narrative but as an interloper in our country or second hand Kiwis as real Kiwis like to call you, your opinion is about as useful as used toilet paper. Bring on the immigration reset so we don't have to listen to foreigners who like to rewrite my countries history to suit their narrative, oh and educate yourself before making up your fairy tales, start with TREATY OF WAITANGI, have a great day :)

Aren’t religious people supposed to be nice ? All religious books have it in them „be nice to others“ stuff , but how come all religions people read them so wrong and end up on the opposite side

@@millennialimmigrant5600 Religious people are always nice all the time, but we all have to be abided by the law also. We all have to abide by the laws of Nature, land, and local authorities. Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore, whoever resists the authorities resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Would you have no fear of the one who is in authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive his approval, for he is God's servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword in vain. For he is the servant of God, an avenger who carries out God's wrath on the wrongdoer. Therefore, one must be in subjection, not only to avoid God's wrath but also for the sake of conscience. {Roman 13: 1-7}

Hi Mere. Don't worry I already left, but "thanks" for telling me what to do "go and live there". Regarding " let us be" - I am not impacting anyone in any way, I am just telling my opinion and I have right to do so. "I'm sure there are a lot of other people who'll be grateful to have the opportunity to start a new life here" again I am not stopping anyone from doing that. But before making that life changing decision and spending all their money and selling their property in home country to put all that money on NZ, I am sure they would want to know both sides of the coin and hear different experiences. The issues I raised are real, like cmon all locals are well aware about the housing bubble, and housing quality. And statistics I pulled is official statistics, so I am not sure what are you hating on. Or as an immigrant I can't have a voice and cant say that something is wrong?

Good riddance 👍✌️

lol doubt such attitude from locals will encourage people to come, but that was fun - hope all good with you
