Hi,
I was wondering can you get the dole after college even if you have never worked before? Im finishing in Late May, trying to find basic jobs even dishwashing you have to have 3 years experience, And I have done my degree in English and Archaeology and all internships related to these are taken up by jobbridge programme. So I like to apply for one of these internships but have to get the dole first for 3 months to do so.

As soon as you have finished college you should obtain a letter from the college confirming that your studies are over and take it to the Social Welfare office and make an application for Jobseekers Allowance. The following document is helpful about the qualifying criteria, eligibility, means testing, documentation to be produced etc: http://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/social_welfare/social_welfare_payments/unemployed_people/jobseekers_allowance.html
