Some potential {and extremely exciting} job opportunities over at Trinity College Dublin . There are FOUR jobs going there. All are library assistant roles, of which 3 are part time. The other role is a 6 month full time library assistant role. The deadline is tomorrow. {Sept. 27th 2011 12pm} So get applying.  I am however extremely skeptical about these roles as, from past experiences, these could be an 'inside job'. They legally have to advertise positions, etc, thus giving us all false hope. I'm hoping and praying that this is not the case for these 4 potentially interesting jobs.  Which brings me nicely onto the subject of Cover Letters. Ugh. This is an area of my life, I truly detest. For the life of me I cannot write a decent cover letter, they have ranged in the past from 3 sentences, 'My name is x, I would like a job. Thanks' - to thesis like cover letters. The one that I have been using at the moment has secured me 3 job interviews, i'm currently re...

Hi ho hi ho it's off to Canada I go....

For those registered with FAS and that have been on JobSeekers Allowance for 3 Months, there are a few opportunities out there. A few based in Dundalk, Cork, Roscommon, Ennis & Dublin. This Librarian  post via FAS closes in 2 days time {5th Oct}, it's a job in Special Needs school in Sandymount, Dublin and is also associated with the Job Bridge Scheme, so applicants need to make sure they are applicable before they apply. So far these are the only jobs, i've been able to locate online. In other news, i've decided to give Ireland 6 months, and then it's off to Canada for me. I figure it gives me enough time to get myself a job in retail, save some money before the big move. There are jobs in Canada, esp in the library field, they aren't half as frequent as the jobs from the States. The reason I've decided not to do the year long J1 visa, is purely on the fact that it is expensive. At least in Canada, whilst waiting for the perfect Library job, you ca...

American & Canadian Job Links

Just for those searching for jobs in the States & Canada. Library Sites is a great website, more so for US libraries . It's divided into states, click on the state and it provides you with Public Libraries, Universities & Specialist libraries. They have a Canadian subsection too which is good but not half as comprehensive as the American version. Reason I mention them, is I've found it's easier to go through the Public libraries and see what job opportunities there are in those particular branches. They usually list positions such as 'Page' and 'Shelf Stacker' etc, as well as part time library assistants, which aren't often advertised on LisJobs . So yes, it is time consuming, but also worth it. Though the interface is really quite dated, Library Job Postings  is a great data bank for jobs in the States {less so Canada}.
