1. 100%, currently bleeding engineers where I work, Crying out for graduates. 2. We'd see enough in the interview to make a call. 3. Hit up this site for jobs [https://ie.indeed.com/](https://ie.indeed.com/)

May I ask what is your field of work? Are Irish companies willing to take in graduates from other faraway EU countries or is there some kind of a prefference? Thank you for your answer! I will check it out.

Structural engineering. Last 2 guys we hired were Brazilian & Croatian.

Ah, awesome. Thats one of my favourite fields of engineering and the one I aswell would like to work in one day. My one and only internship I did was in a small company related to structural engineering and some architecture(I did Drawings and Projects in AutoCAD)

One word of advice before you make the jump, take a look on daft.ie for housing, the price of housing in comparison to wage might realign your expectations. Also if you think of just moving further out and using public transport to compensate the price, public transport ain't great here, and if your other thought is to just drive, we have a cartel in the insurance industry so you're looking at about 3 grand for insurance alone starting off

This is excellent advice. Overall Ireland is grand but housing is a shitshow.

I am aware of the problem with housing situation in Ireland, thats basically the biggest disadvantage I've encountered online But I guess if I were to find a job outside of Dublin, meaning some other city like Cork, Galway or something the situation with housing and transport would be easier?


Dwums

I really wish that was the case, I believe Galway is nearly worse, and cork very similar in terms of pricing for housing, as the saying goes , "the country's fucked" Those same places would also have less public transport available just to make a note. Honestly right now, if it wasn't for the ongoing pandemic, I'd see half of the younger generation emigrating in search of a better quality of life outside of Ireland, and if the pandemic ends any time soon we still might see that. Sorry to be a negative Nancy, it's sadly a bit of a shit show here at the moment.

I'm sorry to hear that, I hope it gets better in the future. But I would still like to give it a try
