Question 1
Why don't you apply for a job in Dublin, as they are crying out for finance people in Dublin?
Why don't you apply to you old employer (which is a medical device company beside Medtronic), which was before I got a degree, I worked as a production operator. I was told on the Tuesday, I would be contacted on the Friday about the outcome.
I was never contacted again after the interview, to let me know the outcome of the interview. That tells me all I needed to know about this company.
