Response I.T. Anyone heard of this company?

thelad84

Was searching on Jobbridge for placements when i came across this company advertising for a network support technician. Tried to do a bit of research to find a little about them and all i can find is that the company is based in Oranmore there is no website or anything.

I came across the same advertisement about a month ago was going to apply for it then but waited and then it was gone a week later. So it makes me wonder did something happen because its back up.

Just wondering has anyone came across this company before?

I would guess they're trying to resurrect the company, using the same brand as in 2012. If they've learned from the last few years, it may even succeed (people in Ireland knock a business failure, Americans have a better approach) - but I would be cautious re working for nothing.

No, definitely not. I see one of their vans around the Oranmore the odd time, never heard of anyone having any dealings with them.

I would doubt that Response I.T. has anything to do with the limited company as it has a different name and the company had liquidators appointed. Though I would be very wary if the current recruiters are former directors of the old company.

Ye i just find it strange that an IT company has no working website. The only info i found was an address and opening times, which are 8am - 8pm Monday - Friday and Saturday 12-4. I was thinking of applying for the Jobbridge placement for experience but think i wont do it now.

You're easily dissuaded.. What's stopping you from applying, going for an interview and then making an educated decision instead?

You are right biko. I might do that.

Thanks for all the replies.
