INTERNET giant Google has confirmed that it will add over 600 jobs to its Irish workforce.

The company said that Ireland will be the largest Google operation outside of its American headquarters.

The jobs will be added to its Dublin base over the next three years in a multi-million euro expansion backed by the IDA. The company has signed a lease for a 100,000 sq ft office block adjacent to its existing premises.
