  1. hi you

    you will have no problem here we all speck English here to


  2. no problem re language - tho visa might be a diff. kettle of fish.

  3. Susan,

    Please do some research about Ireland if you come over. Your question is a little frieghtening to be honest as you fall into the "uneducated American catergory".

    The 2 official languages of Ireland are English and Irish.

    Having said that, good luck with the move and job hunting, i wish you every success.

    Oh and we spell "Centre" like this not "center". Just one of the many differences between ROI and USA.

  4. Ireland are getting very picky about who they let in for work purposes, and I don't think a call centre employee would be an asset to the country.

    You will need the following:

    A work permit

    Offer of employment

    Arranged accommodation

    A suitor (who will look after you if you are unable to support yourself for any reason).

    Then you will be reviewed regularly (I think 6 months after entry, then 18 months, then 42 months), then after 60 months you can apply for Irish citizenship.

    As for language it depends, English is widely spoken in Ireland, however some small communities (villages etc..) speak Irish, changes are they can speak English as well though.

  5. Emmm we speak english.Oh and English and Irish are the official languages actually. Most people working in call centers sound Jamaican. You will be fine.

  6. haha no way! english is the main language spoken here. the 2nd is Polish though so u might wanna brush up on that because you almost need to speak it now.

  7. Oh My God!!!, English is the official language of Ireland, don't you know that. Sure they have an accent, but not enough so that you won't understand them, they speak English.

  8. You should do just fine.  I have a support call center I have to work with there and they have been great to work with.....definitely not like the ones I have to work with from...well let me say...other places in the world where I can barely understand them because of a heavy accent.
