You apply via the Irish Embassy, it would be easier if you had a job offer before you applied. As things currently stand the Irish economy is going rapidly downhill, employment is increasing every day & Irish college graduates are preparing to leave the country. There are restrictions on who can or cannot get a visa - if you had an exceptional skil//talent/job that is rare or no one else could do but is vital to the Irish economy it would be helpful. As things stand Irish employers must show that they been unable to find someone to do a job in the Republic before they can offer it to someone else. This link is from an Irish website & will tell you everything you need to know about moving to the Republic of Ireland http://www.citizensinformation.ie/categories/moving-country/moving-to-ireland If you have a parent or grandparent who was born in Ireland, you could be eligible for Irish citizenship and could apply for an Irish passport that would get you around the need to apply for a visa & it would also allow you to move freely through the EU. If you have an Irish parent or grandparent, if you have a parent who is a citizen of an EU member state (and they haven't renounced their citizenship), you could see if you qualify for citizenship/passport through them.
