About this ireland cv template
Irish CVs follow a style close to the UK: a short personal statement in the first person, key skills, career history in reverse order, education and references. Photos, date of birth and marital status are left off. Because many applicants come from abroad, Irish employers also like a clear right-to-work line: Irish or EU citizen, Stamp 4, or the type of employment permit you hold or need. The sample is a data analyst in Dublin.

Tips for jobs in Ireland
No photo or personal data
Leave out photo, age and marital status. Irish employers avoid them to stay clear of discrimination concerns.
Say your permit status
Stamp 4 or a Critical Skills Employment Permit can decide whether you are shortlisted. Be clear and honest.
Use Irish phone format
A local number (087, 085, 086) or a note that you are relocating helps recruiters call you.
Spell it the Irish way
Use Irish/UK spelling: organise, CV, programme.
