International students who want to get a PR – Permanent Residency – should make their academic and work profile so as excellent as possible: They can achieve this by always evaluating their academic score and doing internships, and the last thing to have is a work permit. Basically, international students will get a PR , if they have been in Ireland for more than three years.

International students other than EU or EEA are not eligible to work a full – time work, but casual work which means casual employment in hiring employees during high business periods to meet needs of different companies having shortage in staff.

Casual work is not as beneficial as part – time or full – time work, as casual employees are not entitled to proceeding on their work in the future, and they are not entitled to modern awards, and leaves of different types either personal, parental..., with no specific hours of daily work, in addition to being paid less than full – time or part- time work.
