The biggest event will be the Intreo Careers Fair in Dublin Castle this Thursday, March 28. Each day will also feature online interactive Jobs Fairs allowing jobseekers to participate from the comfort of their own home.

This dedicated week of activity provides jobseekers and employers the opportunity to network and connect together and to provide information on the services available to jobseekers and employers from the Department’s Intreo service. 

As well as advertising job vacancies, the events will include one to one CV clinics, interview preparation workshops, seminars, career coaching and recruitment fairs targeted at specific industries.
