Recruiters offer hundreds of jobs at Louth fair

Recruiters from Ireland and more than 15 EU countries will be looking for hundreds of workers today at a jobs fair in Co Louth.

The Employment and Advice Fair, being held at the Marshes Shopping Centre in Dundalk, will have more than 60 employers offering jobs, training and advice.

Around half of the jobs will be in Ireland, and the other half will be available across Europe.

The Department of Social Protection's International Employment Services Manager Kevin Quinn said the fair would include some big employers, including Paypal and Hertz.
