New Zealand has points based system to issue visa. You need to score minimum 140 points to be eligible to get invitation to apply.

Example Profile -
Let us say you below profile.
Your age is 30. You have got a BE degree in computer science from Indian University and you have 7 years of experience in Software Testing. You have also cleared IELTS exam with 7 points in Each Band.

Your score = 105 Points =  25 Points for age + 10 Points for skilled work + 20 Points for Work Experience + 50 points for Qualification.

Thus getting a visa is not easy if you do not have a job offer in hand. Once you get a job offer, you get around 50 points increasing your score to 155. With such a good score, you will easily get a skilled visa and you could become a permanent resident of New Zealand.
