Anyone have advice on getting a new job in Ireland?

Anyone have advice on getting a new job in Ireland?

Currently working a remote job that I hate. Management takes micromanagement to a whole new level. They're based in the US so I get paid in Dollar but I also don't have any legal protection.

I've got a side hustle (videography) that I'm trying to build into my main gig.

My previous experience has been in tech (in various roles). Ranging from customer support/content moderation to management. I also have some more technical experience with automation.

My LinkedIn is up-to-date but I don't seem to be getting past the automated systems and to the interview stage

EDIT: My instance (lemdro.id) is having issues with lemmy.world so I don't always see the updates from lemmy.world straight away. It's generally about a 6 hour delay.

EDIT 2: I’ve created another account on Lemmy.World (@governorkeagan_@lemmy.world) so that I can interact here while my instance fixes the federation issue.

Curious to see what you guys can tell us about it.

Future of the community

Future of the community

It’s great seeing more engagement and activity here recently!

It seems like the mod isn’t active anymore and aussie.zone has offered to create a community for us - I think it’d be hilarious having the Irish community there.

More importantly though, I think having an active more (or multiple) is really important.

I’m not a mod (happy to help though) but I’d love to see what others think about the future of our community.

Thoughts on an Irish Lemmy instance?

Something like the Brits have: feddit.uk / info

There is also an Irish Mastodon instance but I’m not sure if any of them are here.
