Link Personnel in the News….Jobs in Ireland for Returning EmigrantsLink Blog | March 29, 2013
At Link Personnel, we have observed a significant improvement in the employment market in Ireland over the past 6-12 months, especially in Dublin.
There are increasing job opportunities for both residents and those considering returning from abroad.
Today's Irish Times features a story, with insights from our agency, on the recent trend of emigrants returning to Ireland.
While emigration from Ireland continues, it is not a one-way movement.
The paper notes that over 100,000 people have returned since 2008.
Many prospective returnees are often discouraged by negative perceptions about the job market at home.
However, this is not accurate.
There are good jobs available now, and Link Personnel is recruiting for leading domestic and multinational companies that are offering these opportunities.
From our experience, Irish emigrants tend to work hard and are highly regarded by employers abroad.
They gain valuable responsibility and experience, making them attractive candidates for employers in Ireland.
When qualified candidates contact us, we assist them through CV review, Skype interviews, and reference checks to secure interviews for the roles they desire.
Often, candidates can secure a job within hours of arriving back in Ireland.
In Dublin, we have seen a steady flow of vacancies in Legal, Accountancy and Finance, Pharmaceutical, and Secretarial and Administrative roles over the past 6-12 months.
Additionally, there is an abundance of IT jobs, not only temporary or contract roles but also permanent, well-paid positions in top companies across Dublin and beyond.
Salaries are also beginning to increase in some sectors.
As mentioned in the article, many qualified professionals are enjoying their lives abroad—on Bondi Beach, walking through Trafalgar Square, or admiring the lights of Roppongi—yet they possess the skills and attitude needed for jobs in Dublin right now.
For those considering returning home or those who are content abroad but wish to keep the option open, the outlook is bright and will continue to improve.
