    Given that there seems to be people looking for work and people looking for people to work, so this seemed a good idea.

    Please post here if you have a job or are looking for one. Once the position is filled, can you PM a mod to remove your post?

    NO AGENCIES - You will get an immediate ban from the forum.

    Hi, I've just completed a Comptia A+ computer technician course and I am currently undertaking a Network+ course. I'm looking for a job in IT full-time or Part-time and would even consider doing work experience. If anyone has a vacancy I would love to hear from you.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 309 ✭✭DO'Carlo/Wex


    Laid-off (at least I got laid hay!) in Febuary from a manufacturing outlet.
    Willing to do anything & would move to Wexford no bother.
    Don't drive but once I start working again, I will re-start lessons.
    Will genuinely consider anything so long as it's full-time but no commission-ondly.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,549 ✭✭✭✭Judgement Day


    Nice idea but let's face it there are NO jobs in Wexford and anyone who has one around DG is part time - eg. one or two days per week. There were few enough jobs here during the Celtic Slug and none at all now!

    If it needing hammering home that the South East is a basket case this news item from yesterday's Indo surely proves the point.

    Irish Independent

    Monday May 17 2010

    IN a sign of the times, almost 1,000 people have applied for fewer than 25 jobs at a new cinema -- many of them over-qualified.

    Gorey cinema manager Eugene Tobin said he was 'flummoxed' by the number of applications at the Co Wexford venue.

    "We received 939 applications and we have between 20 and 25 jobs on offer. We had applications from people with PhDs, master's degrees, from accountants, from all walks of life."

    While there are some top positions, the majority are for general cinema duties.

    The South East & particularly Wexford has been treated with contempt since independence, the Political Parties & establishment & even the EU have failed to secure any lasting prosperity by making little effort in investing in the long term future of the region & it's people. The region should be, with it's closer links to Britain & Europe one of the most prosperous parts of Ireland. Meanwhile Wexford county is a backwater, particularly the South & Western areas.:mad:

    Instead the levels of unemployment in Wexford are higher than the west, whilst third level education numbers are in fact lower.

    The proposed closure of South Wexford railways whilst the continually subsidised western regions continue to have massive government & EU aid sums up the disgraceful situation.

    And apart from a few notable exceptions, our politicians fail the people of the South East region.

    Originally from Wexford and have to say yeah I probably wouldn't move back there because I'd never get a decent job in research or academia.

    In response to the previous posts - yeah I kind of agree that Wexford has been left behind by the major Industries even though it has a fantastic roll-on roll-off port facility for easy access to the rest of Europe. We did however manage to get a pretty decent N25 and the N11 isn't half as bad as some of the primary routes down here in Munster!!!

    I also believe that Wexford is one of the nicest counties in the country and that tourism is completely underdeveloped in the region.

    Our festivals (bar the Opera) have dwindled in popularity as Cois Farraige, The Oyster Festival, Electric Picnic, Dublin Film festival etc. continue to grow.

    I'm no expert on sales, marketing, tourism etc. but surely more can be done to promote Wexford - create a united tourism board, amalgamate smaller festivals to coincide with each other and draw more people down from around the country and keep those who come in on the boats in the county.

    We've some of the best beaches around (ok we might not have the surf of the West) but surely some entrepeneurs could think of business ideas to get things going. Also there are some great golf courses around, par 3's par 4's, links etc. I'm sure they do alright by themselves but why not join forces and advertise together.

    I know everyone will say that outdoor activities are at the mercy of the weather etc but it doesn't take a genius to realise that even on wet weekends the N7/M7, N21, N20 and N24 to Limerick and Clare are jammed with people heading down to get some watersports in for the weekend.

    Also noticed recently that the tourism Ireland ad on tv doesn't feature Wexford at all. Goes to show - we don't have the pull anymore.

    For 10-15 years everyone got jobs in construction. For the next 10-15 all plenty of these men and women will get jobs as handy men fixing up the **** quality houses that were built but if I was to hedge my bets, tourism is the only industry that has room for expansion at the moment. The government will focus on renewable energy, biosciences and technology but these all require qualifications and time to set up and running. Get ahead of the rest of the country Wexford and lead the way!

    Irish people are staying around for the holidays more and more. I'd be more than happy to head to Wex more often if there was more to do.

    Final point - we all know the celtic kitten made people very greedy. Be realistic and keep prices low. Only recently has it become just as cheap to stay in a hotel in Ireland as it is abroad. Keep it that way.

    You may ask why don't I do these things myself. Like I say I don't work in tourism or marketing. I've just observed what other places have been doing and would rather see Wexford benefit for once.

    Location: Morriscastle village in Kilmuckridge.

    PM me if interested.

    I have lost count of how many are out of work in Co.Wexford but there's not much hope for them according to today's Enniscorthy Guardian which had two part-time jobs, two full-time jobs and a commission sales agent wanted - now where did I leave my CV or perhaps I should get on my bike! Some week's go by with zero jobs advertised.

    Just found this: The National unemployment rate was 11.0% March 2009. County Wexford’s unemployment rate stands at 15.4% at the end of March 2009 Apparently the number out of work in the county grew by 50% (!) since then - how many thousand this is I can't pin down.

    Even in the 'good times' Byrne's rarely if ever bother replying to job applicants so don't get your hopes up! Anyway word on the ground is that the company is in terminal decline. :(

    Recruitment drive for Coca Cola plant was done months ago-the recruitment agency had a big open day in the Maldron hotel so I reckon positions will be filled from the cv's handed in there-they had a huge turnout.
