Sydney, Australia-based Klick Communications has signed Wellington Regional Economic Development Agency to its Los Angeles office.

Statistics show that in the 24 hours after the US presidential election, the Immigration New Zealand website received 56,300 visits from the U.S. alone. 

While some have joked about leaving the US following Trump's win, Wellington is serious about recruiting tech talent and has more than 2,000 jobs up for grabs, 280 of which are in the IT sector.  Start-ups Xero, Weta Group and 8i were founded in New Zealand's capital city.

Klick, led by director of communications Brenda Urban, will undertake a one-month project to promote the tech job opportunities available.  The agency specializes in travel, consumer brands, and lifestyle clients.
