What do I need to do to work in Ireland? Do you consider the job there a good option? - Is it a good idea?
Does anybody know anything about Ireland? Is it good to live / work there?

Irish here. We have over at least one hundred thousand Polish people living in Dublin alone. We had a wave of migrants from Eastern Europe. Apart from Polish migrants, we have Latvians and Czechs. But at the moment we have a tiger economy here. But Ireland is a very expensive place to live. Houses prices are rising the whole time. Even Dubliners are having to move out of the city to buy houses. There is a huge demand for IT professionals. Ireland is regarded by the EU as the second most expensive place to live after Denmark. Here are a few sites for you to look at www.monster.ie www.recruitireland.com www.jobsearch.ie www.construction-jobs.ie www.JoslinRowe.ie If your a non EU citizen you find it even harder, because they have introduce new tougher laws on non EU migrants. They have introduce a new green card system for non EU migrants.

Does anybody know anyway that my mexican boyfriend could work in Ireland
Does anybody know anyway that my mexican boyfriend could work in Ireland?
My boyfriend whos mexican would like to come live with me here in Ireland. I know that he can visit here using only his passport but to work he needs a visa, In order for him to get a visa he needs a job offer first, which is very hard to get considering he's in mexico! Does anybody know any company that would be willing to help?? Hes a very good chef of all food types! or we would also be willing to move over the the UK if it made things easier!

My friend DON'T do it. They hate the foreigners in Ireland. He will have very hard times. It is a long story but the Irish are the most racists in Europe. Even Europeans had hard times here. Avoid it, especially now under the recession the hate hits the top. Have a look here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLiOEAnvwOE&eurl=http%3A%2F%2Firishrecession.blogspot.com%2F2009%2F05%2Firish-recession-debate-on-whether.html&feature=player_embedded http://loranablog.wordpress.com/2008/09/26/the-social-network-as-a-tool-to-isolate-socially-dangerous-people/ They are not so friendly as they say. I had the hardest time of my life there. I am blond and green eyes but since I am mediternnean I had more chances to be considered as white in an isolated place in Nevada than in Ireland.

He does not need a visa in advance, but he is likely to be thoroughly questioned on landing, particularly if he is transitting through London. Any sniff of the fact that he is planning to stay ("live with me" does not imply a holiday to me..) or, worse, violate his conditions by seeking employment, and you may well find him refused entry. I would recommend a 2 or 3 week holiday, and holding a proper return ticket and sufficient "pocket money".

Tell him to drop in on us at Ballydung. Rodge has developed a taste for those fajita things and I'm fairly partial to guacamole. It makes a change from cabbage and spuds all the time. We'll give him a room as long as he cooks for us whenever we're hungry. This could sometimes be when we come back from the Ballydung Arms at 3 in the morning after a lock-in so he'd better be on his toes. He can also give us a hand with milking the cows of a morning but he'd better keep his hands off our Latvian milk maid Valentina. She's ours!!

Chances are he won't get a job offer, Irish people and EU nationals can barely get a job nevermind a non - EU national

"In order for him to get a visa he needs a job offer first, which is very hard to get considering he's in mexico!" you mean considering there's a frikin recession goin on at the moment! hadn't you noticed at all?????? tbh you'd be better going to mexico to him

Sarah, it's very hard even for Irish people (and other EU nationals) to get jobs these days and quite possibly it'll be like that for the next few years. He'll have a hell of a time trying to get into Ireland tbh, especially in the current climate. Plus, while we may not like to admit it he may actually not be very welcome by many people here. I'd be uncomfortable with a non-Irish or non-EU national taking a job that an Irish person could do in the current economic climate. Sorry to have to say it but it's true. If you are in love etc, hen why don't you go to Mexico...you could teach English there and he could continue working -with both your incomes combined you'd get by but not as good as here in Ireland of course. The UK is an option but economies everywhere are suffering but the UK economy is still in a somewhat better position right now than the Irish economy, unfortunetly. Em, I don't mean to pry but how is he your bf if you are here and he is there? Were you there on holiday? If so immigration will look on that as a holiday whirlwind rromance. Did you live there previiously? Have you ever lived together? Remeber that some folks from poorer countries will do and say things simply to get to "richer" countries....that's simply the way it is. I don't mean to burst your bubble but you REALLY need to be aware of that. If you really do want to be together then go to Mexico, do a TEFL course here, get the certificate and head to Mexico (just make sure you have a return ticket!....cause things have a way of going belly up sometimes!!!) Tell him you are thinking of moving to Mexico to be with him and see how he reacts, if he does "love" you then he should say "great, guapa!" if not then maybe you should reconsider your relationship?

How do you get a visa to work in ireland or any other country
How do you get a visa to work in ireland or any other country?

1 :
You apply for visas and work permits (they are normally two different documents) to the embassy or consulate of the country that you are visiting Depending on your citizenship and the length of stay, you may not need a visa to visit. If you are a US citizen, you can stay for up to three months without a visa. However, you cannot legally work if you enter the country as a tourist. It is highly unlikely that you will be able to obtain a work permit and work legally. Your prospective employer would have to prove that there are no citizens of the European Union who are available and qualified for the job. Unless you have some extremely specialized skills, that's not going to happen.

Phone the Irish Embassy or Consulate in the country you are in and ASK THEM.
