The JobBridge National Internship Scheme is a key part of the Government’s Jobs Initiative and has been set up with a view to giving job seekers the opportunity to take part in a quality internship with a host organisation.

Since the launch of the National Internship Scheme a number of internship opportunities have been progressed by my Department and the Defence Forces. There were no interns taken on in Co. Louth by my Department or the Defence Forces from September 2013 to January 2014.
