    I'm wondering if anyone who works in the IT/Computing industry would be able to suggest any IT companies which would be offering 3months+ student placement or even any I could email to ask? Anywhere in Ireland. compulsory part of my course and still no luck in finding one :(

    I know it's tough OP but stick with looking. Get a few courses under your belt (ccna's\mcp's) to keep up with the industry if you can. Also have you tried recruitment agencies?
