‘Signs of recovery lure emigrants back’

There has been a rise in the number of emigrants returning to seek jobs in Ireland as the first tangible signs of recovery emerge.

There has been a 3% rise in the number of job vacancies to date this year, even as figures for September show there has been a slight fall in jobs available compared to last year.

Karen O’Flaherty, chief operations officer with Morgan McKinley, said they had seen a rise in the number of people returning to Ireland.
