"IT is big here. Google has its EU headquarters here, and Yahoo has a base here as well," said another expat in Dublin, Ireland.
"Foreigners often work in Ireland in a variety of occupations, ranging from service and hospitality jobs, such as wait staff and chefs, to administrative and software engineering positions. Other common jobs for foreigners include teaching, nursing, and construction work. A variety of skilled trades, including electricians, carpenters, and plumbers, are also frequently in-demand.
