Graduate jobs are far and few between in the current climate, however, if you are a graduate struggling to gain relevant experience, here’s a bit of good news. Enterprise Rent-A-Car are expanding operations in Ireland. The car rental service company have announced 40 new full time staff, along with 15 part time and 30 internship positions.
The company says that the roles are open to graduates in any discipline, and the company has highlighted its “award winning Graduate Management Training Programme” to interested jobseekers.
Rent-A-Car is part of the Global Enterprise Rent-A-Car Group. They say, it has a “promote from within” culture and that all full-time employees start out in the Management Training Programme.
Enterprise Rent-A-Car in Ireland was started 16 years ago and primarily worked with the insurance companies and the AA. Sixteen years later, they are continuing their expansion with year on year growth for the past number of years.
“We now have over 3,000 cars and vans on the road and we will employ 160 people by the end of the year in a full time capacity.”
