Dublin opportunities

angelco

Hello everyone!

I am new around here, not based in Dublin and I would appreciate it if someone that lives in the city could provide me with some info.

I am a Graphic Designer, that would like to move to Irelnad (Dublin to be exact) and I'm trying to find out as much as I can for the city. I know approximately a cost of living there but I miss others stuff as well.

Is there anyone that could tell me lets say:
1) how much does it cost to hire an agency to look for an apartment to rent (no share)
2) what about job opportunities (in graphic design if you know)
3) first expenses to move in the city
4) cost of moving around per month approximately (site reffering to it, was not quite clear to me)

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this! Any advice is welcome!!:)

Hi,
I would recommend getting a job offer first before coming to Dublin. Put your CV up on job websites and start applying to everything that suits. Once you have an offer and a start date then I would recommend renting a room short term while you get your self situated. Once you are a few pay cheques in you will know your budget and a little more about the areas you like/don't like and can look for an apartment.

Do your research on the areas before you move, ask in the Dublin forum for advice on areas if you have a few in mind, as Dublin can be the nicest place in the world, or the worst depending on the area you move into.
Best of luck.
