Hi! Does the start of the academic year have any effect on the job market here? I am new in Galway and would appreciate any commentaries on the subject.

In my experience, only a little. Most places have the pick of the litter when it comes to workers now. So many will avoid hiring students in favor of somebody they can call on whenever possible. So, I don't think students would be much of a threat...rather the fact there's such a large unemployment rate and you'll be competing with many others....

Kind of, sort of...At least that's what I think. At the same time, I had a friend looking for people at his place two years ago. The job was advertised for a year and there was no interest. My sister was a manager in Sligo about 4 years ago. Had 4 open positions. Only found 1 person after months of looking... Anyways. Getting off topic. I don't think you'll have much extra competition with students..

I don't know what your lifestyle / working situation is, but if you're eligible for JobBridge, SAP occasionally advertise on there for Interns.

As far as I know this one is going to be a stand alone. Aramark run the one in NUIG whereas this job was posted by Colfee Ltd who run the Starbucks in the likes of Dublin, Cork and Limerick.

Hi, I'm a 26 year old out going, positive, professional, enthusiastic, motivated individual. I excel at reception/secretarial work with a good eye for detail. I don't mean to sound blunt but people do like me very much, I am easy to relate to and love working as part of a team...
I find it very hard to find office work in the City or suberbs... Has anybody any hints or tips in this area of how to gain employment?
