Default 24 year old guy from London - Wanting to start new - graphic designer

Hi guys, I'm a 24 year old, born and brought up in London and am looking for a change.

I've done my university and everything here and by profession work for a leading marketing agency as a graphic/web designer

Are there any good jobs sites to look for jobs in maybe a main city like Cublin for web/graphic design positions? Or what is the market like?

Any tips or advice would be really helpful

Your best bet for design jobs will be in Dublin. I have been trying to find something in the Cavan/Meath area for over a year and jobs are few and far between.

Sites/agencies I have found good are:

http://www.creativeireland.com/ There is a section called jobdesk. Also good discussion forums relating to all types of design.

http://www.prosperity.ie/

Best of luck.

Thanks Ire Blues - what's it like in Dublin? I guess coming from London, if I really wanted to give it a shot for a new experience, Dublin would be the way forward...main city and all right

Oh cool - well I'm half italian, half indian...born and brought up in London

I'm 24 and even if it just for one year - I want that experience of just a little bit of moving about

My only thing is - Dublin isn't really a place I guess to "further" your career from a place like London

I am looking into USA too - Chicago but then I know with say Dublin, I'm moving to a place which is very near my home / London so if any problems or anything it's easy

And at the same time, new people, sexy irish girl accents and new environment
