Well I Live In Ireland Too And I've Noticed The Polish Have Taken Alot Of Our Jobs .......... Well In Clare They Have

I work in kilkeel, Northern Ireland. Still plenty of work building airplane seats! The local building trade however has hit the wall, brick layers are the worst hit at the moment. My friend is an electrician and has plenty of work at the moment but if the brickies aren't building the houses then the rest of the trades will also take a dive.

It would help to know where you are from, as different nationalities have to apply for different visa. If you are an EU citizen, you do not need a visa at all. If you are Australian and under 30, there is a special 1-year visa you can get. If you are American you will have to be eligible under Ireland's 'in-demand occupations' list. See: http://www.citizensinformation.ie/categories/employment/migrant-workers/employment-permits/green_card_permits/ If you are qualified in one of these areas, you can apply for a green card on your own behalf. Employers can apply for a work permit for positions they have been unable to fill from the national labour force. They must first offer these positions to workers from the EEA & Switzerland, then to workers in Bulgaria and Romania, and only if they have not filled the position at that point can they apply for a permit for workers outside these regions: http://www.entemp.ie/publications/labour/2007/guideworkpermits.pdf The list of occupations changes frequently, you should contact your local embassy for an up to date information pack. Alternatively, if you have an Irish parent or grandparent, you can apply for an Irish passport which will entitle you to live and work here for as long as you like. Accommodation is expensive everywhere, but Dublin is most expensive. Small country towns can be cheap, but may not have a lot of employment. Go to the town where you get work, as the economy is in recession and jobs are getting scarcer.

yes it will cause my brother bought one in Florida and it works perfectly in england!
2 :
it should work as long as you purchase the ipod for your operating system at home. i purchased mine in the USA and I live in Canada. I know it's not overseas such as yourself, but consult the Apple Rep if you go to an Apple store and tell him what you're running at home.
3 :
is should the ipod hasnt yet put the radio as one of there features and sence it doesnt have FM RADIO then everything should be fine
