Amharc ar fhreagraFollowing a recent campaign run by the Public Appointments Service, my Department plans to recruit at least one graduate this year as an Economist. There may be a requirement for additional graduates depending on the identification of suitable posts. It also participates in the JobBridge National Internship Scheme. In total 18 placements for graduates have been provided throughout the Department under this scheme and a FAS Internship scheme which preceded it.
