FANCY a free holiday to New Zealand?
All you have to do is go for a job interview while you’re there (and be a whizz with computers).
Eager to draw the world’s best tech talent to capital city Wellington, the country is offering 100 job applicants the “career trip of a lifetime”.
In return for free flights and accommodation, the job seekers just have to attend four days of prearranged job interviews, meet-ups and exploration between May 8-11.

The LookSee Wellington program is a collaboration between the New Zealand government and local tech companies that aims to recruit new software developers, creative directors, product managers and analysts.
A message on the website reads: "At the end of the week there’ll be offers to jobs you never knew existed in a place with a lifestyle you never thought possible."
“Wellington is the South Pacific’s tech and innovation capital. Our tech industry is flying along and we need more people.”
To take part, you simply create a profile on the LookSee website, answer some questions and upload your resume.
Participating companies then nominate which applicants they are interested in interviewing in person and the 100 applicants with the most nominations will be offered a trip.
