There's Websites listing the different visa types. You need a qualification in a profession (they have a list of the professions they want) and two years experience and then you have to buy the visa for a couple of thousand as well, although it lasts longer than 6 months.
Otherwise you could go in for the green card lottery for €50 or free I think if you apply directly instead of through an agency. If your name comes up you get a free work permit for life.
