to be fair i wouldnt say that. he has vision alright. too bad that vision is more focused on how to get re-elected every time:rolleyes: would be a great local politition but at a national level he is everything that is wrong with the system.

but thats off topic.

i do hope that it inspires confidence in more companies to follow suit

I really don't want to see a thread about good news for the area dragged into a political debate. Dell Limerick would not have gotten a great thing like this without hardwork and dedication from the 1000 or so remaining workforce.

If you want to start a discussion about how past governments have let us down, find a suitable forum, if you want to discuss how 1 region did better than others, find a suitable forum, this thread is about good news relating to Dell Limerick

This whole forum and its moderation is a complete farce. Do you scream at your mates and tell them to shut up if you start a conversation about the weather if it turns into a rant about fuel prices??

I for myself am done with this forum.

Happy to get banned for this. For whatever ridicoulus reason. Hope it makes your day.

I don't shout at my mates, cause they are intelligent enough to discuss things without descending to the same old bashing.

I also have far better things to be doing than banning folks that don't want to be here, if you have a problem with how a forum is moderated feel free to raise an issue in the DRM.

The 150 jobs will be spread over a 24 month period and be coming online between their Dublin and Limerick locations.

Just looking at a few of the recruitment websites that Dell uses like Irishjobs.ie and the Cloud tech jobs being advertised for at present are in Dublin.


Below is a list of the currently advertised Dell job vacancies in Dublin and Limerick.

I saw a piece on a show like Primetime/The Frontline a year or so ago that stated that often by the time these big announcements are made most of the immediate positions have already been filled. Either internally or through recruitment agencies. And the rest are "planned" rather than something they are currently hiring for and are often filled internally as each position arises. In fact the reports from yesterday say that these 150 jobs will materialise over the next 2 years. It's more spin than substance.

That doesn't mean he is very intelligent, good at studying and learning and capable. But every politician is capable or else they wouldn't be there.


But yes, it's good news, but I'd like to see more companies come into the area. We saw what can happen when you become a 1 big trick pony.

I was not debating the pros and cons. I was just repeating what was said in the announcement by Dell in terms of the new jobs and the time frame involved and I put up the link to the recruitment site as a poster had asked about where to apply for Dell jobs.
