From the NZ perspective,

You could apply for a job at Jetstar NZ, no DEC, so as a co-pilot, and cos you have a type rating, you start on about $65K + fark all allowances. However you may have a quick rise to command due to your hours on type.

You could apply to Pac Blue and/or Jet Connect but they operate B738's so you'll need to cover your type rating (PacBlue approx $AUD32K, JC 50% company subsidy $AUD15.5k) and most of your expenses for the 6 week TR course (PacBlue are covering flights & accom now I think) . Starting rates are approx: Pac Blue $85k and JC are $79.5k

AirNZ operate the A320, but you won't get direct entry to that fleet, all new hires start as International S/O's now, and it's prob 5+yrs seniority required to bid for the Bus.

Figures are approx and to the best of my knowledge only.
