I registered last week on HP career application.
Tks for the links I will check the other one too.
By the way, hows the weather in Galway today?

Ring HP until you speak to someone in HR... if you push it I think they will respond... otherwise your application may sit in a file for months. tell them how much you love galway and how much you want to work for HP.

I will try to send them my cv again.
What are they talking about?
How can they complain about the weather?
( Would they prefer 40-45 degrees in the summer ?! i wonder....
They should be very happy with this weather ....
Lol, i remember something, i was in town close to the shopping center and someone was complaining ...last summer were 27 degrees in Galway...
hey ..what then about Spain, Italy..or some other countries...they could die to get some rain or go straight to the pool . Weather is getting warmer every year
so
who's still complaining about the weather?

This was a bit misdirected. Everyone in town has been moaning about the weather. Sure if we didn't have weather what would we moan about, the taxes or the drivers

I've been to Warsaw once in the hight of summer. You just can't escape the smog and heat. Feels like you were in Athens.

Where are you from.... If you are an EU citizen then why do u need a visa?
I've recently gotten an IT job in Galway and am moving in the next couple of weeks.... I would suggest getting in touch with CPL too... ask for Fiona.

Hi, we've joined EU recently and we still need the work permit
hey, Fiona is a nice lady ...we talked few times on the phone and she's mailing me further my cv ..but no luck yet.
I wanted to meet her in feburary when i was in galway...but i will meet her soon, i'll be back in town if i get an interview.
What part of ireland are u from?

If you are from one of the new states and require a work permit, I think companies like HP would not legally be able to employ you without it.

You'll have a better chance with the permit. After that, you have 4 years experience with oracle, you could try Storm, they are a small company in Galway but they use Oracle a lot.

I'm working now on getting a work permit.
I know work permit could be a problem for some companies.
Thanks a lot for the link and for the advice.
