An immigration lawyer says people are asking to buy job offers in New Zealand. Â
Newshub reports 10 young migrant workers claim they paid between $50-70,000 to Indian agents for the jobs, but were underpaid and made redundant just months in. Â
Immigration Minister Erica Stanford says she's seeking advice to further tighten settings for the Accredited Employer Work Visa. Â
Immigration lawyer Aaron Martin told Tim Dower that some people ask recruiters, immigration agents, and immigration lawyers here how much it will take to buy a job. Â
He says they spend a lot of time saying that's not legal in New Zealand and they won't deal with them, but there's clearly a group of employers who are tempted. Â
