As an expat looking to work in Ireland, options exist for local employment. However, to start working in Ireland, you will need to find an employer willing to sponsor you and arrange for your work permit. General Employment Permits are issued by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise, and Innovation, but the position will need to pay US$33,000 to have a permit issued. If a company requires specialized personnel that is not readily available to work in Ireland, for example, it is permitted to hire technical or specialized staff. For this reason, individuals who speak non-EU languages are also given special consideration. The upside to obtaining a permit is that you can work at your job in Ireland with all the rights citizens of the EU enjoy.
If you have a particular skill, especially one that is in high demand or is difficult to find in Ireland, you will have a better chance finding a job. As with many things here, finding a job in Ireland can be easier once you have developed connections.

Entrepreneurs with foresight and a little business acumen stand to make substantial gains. The immigrant investor and start up entrepreneur programs have also been set up to make getting on the ground easier to work in Ireland.
