75 jobs, wow, and house prices gone up in Dublin again,, the clusterfvck is finally over, any news on when A.I.B will be able to pay us back our €17.5 billion?
The majority of agencies are clueless 3 year ago I saw an advert for a job within the industry that I work in, It was an agency advertising the job they did not use industry standard abbreviations which would be the norm.
Chancers is what the majority of them are, Also if you look at all the jobs on recruitment websites if these jobs actually existed.
The unemployment rate would be a lot lower, As for the 75 jobs created which is good news, I noticed that there was nothing about the lay offs last week at an English transport & logistics company based in Dublin.
75 jobs over 2 great
That’ll hit the live register hard.
Talking about jobs, what are the agencies for? So useless. They call me and it’s so clear that they didn’t even read my CV…. Job is a miracle. .
Hayes got a good mate of mine a job within two weeks.. I’ve heard of similar experiences from grafton recruitment as well.
Quick ring Enda so he doesn’t miss the bandwagon!
More slave labour jobs from privatised companies. And you talk about Belfast….So that means Belfast is indeed in Ireland???Dou5bke standard hypocrites.

Same as usual for the rural places and then we are called lazy.
