Our recruitment process

Our recruitment process is simple and inclusive — we value and respect you at every stage of the process.

The process to apply for a role at Health NZ differs a little depending on whether you internationally trained, or trained within New Zealand or Australia.

Internationally trained candidates

If you live overseas, and are looking at making a move to New Zealand, you need to fill in an expression of interest form. Our dedicated international recruitment centre will then connect you with experienced advisors who will guide you through every step of the process.
