Still Loading: The Reason NZ’s Digital Systems Lag Behind

New Zealand has always punched above its weight in tech. I remember when I first arrived in the country in 2007 and was genuinely amazed by EFTPOS . I'd spend even $1 or 50c using the card machine. Back in India , we would never have done that; you'd always use cash for such small change. EFTPOS (electronic funds transfer at point of sale) machines were first trialled in NZ in the mid-1980s but spread rapidly in the 1900s once there was a mass critical of both cards and machines.

You understand user insights, you track behaviours intuitively, and you can analyse website heatmaps in your sleep.  But the job description demands Hotjar . You apply, confident that if you can master one interface, you can master another in an afternoon. The result? Your application vanishes into the ATS (Applicant Tracking System) void. The "Same Difference" Matrix This is not an isolated incident; it...
