Priority Occupations.
New Zealand has a shortage of Engineers and Technical people and the Department Of Immigration has issued a list of the "most wanted". What it means in practice
is that if you succeed in finding a job in an occupation on the list, then your application for a work permit and residency will take priority. The following
occupations have been copied from the list - to see the full list follow the link to the immigration web site.
