Dept of Social Protection are advertising for an intern to work in their “busy office environment”. Presumably the job will entail sorting through all those JobBridge applications coming in?

Limerick Leader reports:
Controversy continues over the Government’s JobBridge scheme, as a Subway outlet in Limerick city has advertised two positions seeking “sandwich artists”.
The O’Connell Street outlet is seeking two people to master the ‘art’ of sandwich making for 30 hours a week. Those hired will received an extra €50 per week under the scheme, on top of their existing social welfare payment.
The position is for nine months, and the advert highlights that a mentor will be assigned to the successful applicant.

Via Gfmurphy 101:
“Just had a look at the “Find a Job with Jobs Ireland” on the INTREO website….for the County Limerick area, at the time I accessed the page there were ‘(129 Positions)’ available …….only problem is 34 of those positions are JobBridge internships & 25 are positions on CE [Community Employment] Schemes……so of the 129 jobs on offer 59 are actually ‘non paying’ jobs……or in % terms 45.73% of the jobs on offer are on schemes…..imagine that ….nearly half the jobs advertised ARE NOT really jobs…..over to you Joan [Burton] ..”
How many?

You may recall yesterday’s post concerning the (strongly pro) JobBridge debate on Liveline.
Orla writes:
“You were wondering about the caller ‘Stephen’ to [RTÉ] Liveline who had been on JobBridge and couldn’t speak highly enough of the scheme. This is Stephen Kirwan (arrowed) – he’s a business coach with ‘controversial‘ franchise ActionCoach – and is pictured at the [Bank of Ireland] House of Lords (no less) in July promoting JobBridge with JobBridge creator Joan Burton and Bank of Ireland chief executive Richie Boucher. What are the chances?”
Good times.
