Seeking some advise on job security

Hi Everyone,

I am Manisha Shrestha and currently I am planning to take Post Graduate Diploma Course in Education in New Zealand (Unitec Institute of Technology, Auckland). Regarding this matter, I am seeking your feedback. Hope you will help me by sharing your experiences with us.

Actually, I worked as a Lecturer for couple of years in Kathmandu and then I joined a project as a Communications Specialist. However, I always wanted to be a teacher and my husband has really been supportive about it. So now, he has convinced me to join the course and he will be accompanying me as a dependent too. We are now in the process of applying for the visa.

But it has been couple of days that I have been battling with my thoughts. I am really worried about our job security. Can you please tell us how the situation is in New Zealand? Your first-hand experiences can be really helpful for us in this situation.

As a student, of course, I am allowed to work only 20 hrs...but i hope I'll get a part time job (what do you all think?) but as dependent, what is the scope for my husband? As a matter fact, he is well-educated ( Masters in management from USA) and he has been working as a principal here too. What does your experinces and current scenario in New Zealand say about it? Please do share.

Looking forward for you response.

Regards,
Manisha
