Jobs still plentiful, survey shows

JOB opportunities for Institute of Certified Public (CPA) accountants remain strong despite the recent slow-down in the economy, a new survey shows.

The CPA survey, conducted by BrightWater Selection, shows a newly qualified certified accountant could expect to earn E40,000 to E45,000 in the financial services sector.

A newly qualified accountant working in industry can expect to secure a salary of E38,000 to E42,000 in Dublin, and between E35,000 and E40,000 outside of Dublin.
