    Does anyone know how to go about applying for these jobs. I know some publishing companies have external readers who give submissions a first look before recommending if they should be taken any further.

    I have a literary background but don't know anyone in publishing well enough to make a direct approach, so would appreciate some advice. Are these jobs normally advertised, or would an enquiry by email be the best way to go?

    Hm, I don't know. You could try asking Vanessa O'Loughlin on writing.ie. I'd say you could tweet her.
