Excellent news and fantastic work Dear Javier. I am very very grateful and can’t quite believe its through already and you did it in 2 weeks !!!
I would like to thank you and your staff so much for all the hard work in helping me to obtain/renew my visa in NZ. I know that it could not have happened without Frenz.
My first meeting with you, I knew that I was dealing with a person who is highly professional in what he does. You knew all the answers to my questions and right away offered different ways to deal with my visa options.
Dear Frenz, I will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for an immigration lawyer and adviser.
Dear Javier and Frenz , Once again, thank you very much for all of your services, expertise & guidance through the migration process. Your skills helped me throughout the whole process and made it as clear as possible from start to finish.

Thank you so much, we are very happy with you who helped us to get resident visa.
I really appreciate your huge help for more than 10 years (since 2009!), in long term relationship.
I still remember the tall lady who interviewed me at Auckland office, was worried about me because of my height (148cm) if I can do milking.
We will definitely apply for permanent residency so please help us one more time.
Thank you very much again, M & N

FRENZ Recruitment was very committed to making my professional long-term dream come true. And they worked with me to make it easier to understand professional legal programs. They collaborated with me on this project and all the company officials who worked with me worked very hard. Not only did they take my contract seriously but they are still investigating over the phone with concern for my well being.
I have also recommended my friends to get businesses through this company. My heartfelt thanks and appreciation to FRENZ RECRUITMENT. – Langesh
මාගේ දිගුකාලීන වෘත්තීය සිහිනය සැබෑ කර ගැනීමට FRENZ ආයතනය මහත්සේ කැපවී සිටියේය. වෘතිය නීතිමය පැතිකඩ තේරුම් ගැනීම පහසුවුයේ ඔවුන් නිසාමය.
ඔවුන් මාගේ ව්‍යාපෘතිය සදහා මා සමග සහයෝගයෙන් කටයුතු කල අතර, මා සමග වැඩකල සියලුම නිලධාරීන් ඉතා කැපවීමෙන් වැඩ කලහ. ඔවුන් මාගේ කොන්ත්‍රාත්තුව මහත් වගකීමක් සේ සැලකුවා පමණක් නොව, මාගේ ඉදිරි වැඩකටයුතුවල දියුණුව ගැන සැලකිලිමත් වෙමින් ඔවුන් මා සමග සෑමවිටම සහ සම්බන්ධවී සිටී.
මෙම සමාගම හරහා ව්‍යාපාර කිරීමට මම මගේ මිතුරන්ටද නිර්දේශ කරනු ලබනවා. FRENZ ආයතනය ට මාගේ හෘදයාංගම ස්තුතිය සහ අගය කිරීම පුද කර සිටිමි. – ලන්ගේෂ්
Langesh - farm assistant in Canterbury
FRENZ gave me enormous support to find a farming job in NZ which is quite difficult to do alone for foreigners. Furthermore, they helped me again to obtain 3 year work visa after my career progression.
I highly recommend FRENZ to the individuals who are wanting to find a job in NZ. The staff in FRENZ are always willing to provide advisory services, resolve issues we have regarding our visa application and inform us about all the required documents for visa application without missing.
The immigration process is easy to follow and understand because of the advisory service provided by FRENZ staff.
I am really glad I got chance to work under a good boss and having a job in NZ farm that really matching to my skills. I would like to thank FRENZ because they helped me a lot to find this place and job. – Gayan
