Work Experience : Jobs in Ireland

Posted on by

The Irish  Government “work placement program” is an initiative aimed at providing unemployed people with work experience .  Participants in the WPP  can retain their social welfare entitlements – but get no pay from the employers. It has not produced great results – and as at the start of  May 2010 just over one third of the  2,000 available places had been taken up.

As at 7th May 2010 there were 919 placements on the Work Placement Programme but there were still  1,589 vacancies . The scheme has been running for 12 months
There have been criticisms – such as the lack of any  bonus or welfare top-up offered by employers – when the reality is that it costs people to go to work in terms of travel, buying lunch and work clothes. The employer makes no contribution towards it.
It has also been alleged that some employers are simply using it to get access to cheap labour

 

Job Hunting Tips

Posted on by

Some tips for job hunters:

Look  online – well you’re here – so you are probably doing that anyway.

Search by both the town or area and the job title. Repeat your search every day. Use Google Alerts and register  with reputable job sites

Target companies organisations you’d like to work for. Visit their websites and look for employment information – you may find jobs that don’t appear elsewhere .

As well as online – look in local papers and shop windows.   A local paper can still be a useful place to find jobs in your town. We will try and find some jobs from local papers and post them on this site Jobsguideireland.com

Look further afield  don’t be put off by commuting. It can provide time for reading, learning or just thinking.

Aim high and low. Apply for jobs above and below the level you are currently (or were formerly) working at.

Apply to unconventional places. You may assume your local hospital, for example, doesn’t have any jobs you’d be suited to if you aren’t a healthcare worker – but you might be wrong.

Use your contacts when job-hunting wherever they work.
