    link doesn't work

    Here it is
    http://www.ifscareerstart.com/

    And tbh, I don't see this as aimed at graduates.
    If you have a degree you have enough to get an entry level job in the IFSC
    And two out of three of the affiliated companies are already hiring.

    But thanks for posting

    I dont mean to be smart but considering that the country has been bankrupted by nama is there really a need for people to go into the banking sector?

    Is there work to be had in finance-Can someone please comment on this? i honesty dont know.

    International financial services which is what this course is aimed at is nothing to do with NAMA or "banking". It relates to multinationals who are engaged in financial services that range from Treasury, Funds, Asset management, currently over 26,000 engaged in this sector.
    A lot of opportunities exist in this area still

    Nudist, as said this has nothing to do with NAMA, mortgages or realy Irish customers.

    It's international, tens of thousands of people employed in the area. And while we have massive unemployment in Ireland there are opportunities for graduates and people with experience here.
    If you're a recent graduate with most any degree you could do worse then look into it
    And you can be hired even without a degree

    It's not all doom and gloom :)
