There has been a fantastic shift in Irish compliance for critical skills permit holders and their partners, as partners will now be given direct access to the labour market without needing an employment permit. This is an extremely positive shift for nurses looking to make the move to the Emerald Isle from all over the world, as their partners can now join them much more conveniently without any barriers or delays.


This is such a positive step in the right direction, as our specialised team of nursing recruiters are looking for candidates from all over the globe to fill a vast array of nursing positions across public and private hospitals.
