    Hello

    I am a 27 year old with over 7 years experience working in roles in large multinational companies with strong communication and administration skills, including customer service with sales in banking / IT companies but open to all that would consider me.

    I'm looking to change jobs but don't know what companies to look out for. I wouldn't mind applying to a new company or smaller company but open to opportunities that would suit my experience.

    Can anyone suggest any good companies that are hiring and look for people with my experience?

    Also would consider work from home roles..The more info the better :)

    Thanks :)

    Galway's biggest employers are the hospital and then the medical device companies. No idea if any of them are looking for product-builders (which would be different to your current experience). AFAIK, Boston Scientific recruit via Ice Recruitment, and Medtronic via Cregg. (Mmmm .. may have the wrong recruiters .. I think CPL does one, too).

    Next biggest are a few IT companies: HP, SAP, Schneider. Do you have any languages? I suspect most customer service type jobs need them.


    There's a list of industrial estates here: http://www.galwaytransport.info/2008/12/industrial-estates-business-parks-and.html. For many of these, there'a link to a layout map which lists the major companies in the estate. That may give you some more ideas.

    Amazon has some work from home jobs - there's a big thread about them in here somewhere.

    Thank you Mrs OBumble.

    That's great. Very informative :)

    I will look have a look at all the information provided.

    I would be interested to know how people feel about working from home, I can imagine it isn't for everyone!

    I don't have any languages other than English, unfortunately :(
