‘Find a job’ is a phrase that resounds in the minds of many Irish citizens over the recent years. Whether the circumstances have changed due to redundancy or to losing a job as a result of the current economic climate, this is unfortunately an issue that so many people are facing at present. The Bureau of Labour Statistics released a new search report which outlined the length of time it takes someone to find a job. The report was based on the transition from unemployed to employed and found that 11% of job seekers took a year or longer to find a job. The report shows that between the years of 2000-2008 about half of all unemployed people took roughly five weeks to find a job. That time frame has since increased due to the rise in unemployment. With more people in Ireland seeking employment, companies like Qualified Irish are making the process a lot easier for prospective employees.

Qualified Irish are an Irish jobs board facilitating Irish customers, who are looking to find a job. This new and innovative company are looking to rejuvenate the Irish economy and help Irish consumers in securing employment. Emigration is not an ideal option for the Irish economy but many people are going abroad to find a job. This was the situation for “Jobless Paddy”, Felim Mac AnIomaire who was not content to move to another country to find a job. Felim gathered his last 2,000 euro and went about putting together a billboard in which he stated “Save Me From Emigration.” It pictures Mac AnIomaire with his back to the camera, a suitcase in one hand and a hurley in the other. He is stood at the ocean’s shore looking out at a vista of the Statue of Liberty, British Houses of Parliament, Sydney Opera House and Toronto’s CN Tower.This creative and innovative move to find a job has certainly paid off for the job-less paddy, who is job-less no more.
