Great to see ‘Good News’ making headlines again, hopefully the recession tide is turning for the man on the ground!
sales sense-customer engagement sounds like cold callers. these jobs would be as dependable as a wet toilet roll
Jobs jobs jobs!!!

It’s a start. Good news is good.
Any new jobs announcements are good news….enough of the doom and gloom…
More call center jobs woopidy do Enda!!!!!!!!
Some people would love a job in a call centre.
Office work, that doesn’t require a high skill set or qualifications is very important in the labour market.
Not everyone can have a masters.
That may be true but try going for an interview without a college on your C.V.
Yea yea yea get a nice IDA grant to open here pay some wages for a couple of years then they’ll feck off to India or pakistan when the grant runs out….
A job for a few years for somebody on the rock & roll is better than no job at all.
Good news yes, but how come it’s always “over the next three years”, does that mean they wont be announced next year again to bump the figures up, or that jobs will be down next year as they’ve already taken. The spin in this type of announcement is appauling as it gets so many hopes up just to be kicked down again, and whoo hoo for minimum wage again….. but its good for the jobs that are here and now though (the actual real ones) when we need them most and good luck for the applicants
I’d be extremely hesitant to describe Lifes2Good as a “healthcare company”.
“Snake Oil Salesman” might be more appropriate!
Salessence…..where have i heard of them before ;)
Anyone over 30 and didn’t go to university or college need not apply, same o same o from this government. When will the real work as in manufacturing come here? Manufacturing here creates exports that causes the government to reduce borrowing because money is coming into the country???
thanks enda :)
have your say
