New Zealand's intelligence agencies have blown their secret cover with a light-hearted recruitment campaign.
About 170 positions will be available across the NZSIS and GCSB this financial year, after new investment and staff turnover.
The video offers some detail of what the company does, including a focus on counter terrorism, responding to cyber attacks, and keeping an eye on foreign agents.
SIS director-general Rebecca Kitteridge says their mission is to keep New Zealand safe, but they don't employ James Bond to do it.
She told Heather du Plessis-Allan they're making a big effort to attract a diverse range of people.
"What that means is more women, more diverse ethnicity. We want to look like New Zealanders, and we have been quite successful at that."Â
