18k in Dublin is far too low.

Better off on the dole

Banks tend to have set salaries for these kinds of roles so I think they are just making sure you don't have unreasonable expectations. I would say 25k max.

MrMatisse

Some people are starting to put down will work for free, no joke, so 22 max.
