6+ years in data analytics, two MSc degrees, hands-on experience in Python, SQL, Power BI, AI tools and predictive models. Actively job hunting in Ireland and struggling to get responses. Tailoring each CV before applying.
Genuinely asking: is it the job market, am I underqualified, overqualified?, are there tools I am missing, or is it tougher as an immigrant? Would love honest perspectives from people who have been through this.

The truth is that most job postings online aren’t where real hiring happens anymore. To find a solid role today, you need to re‑strategize; focus on referrals, speak directly with people inside the companies you’re targeting, reconnect with former colleagues, and expand your network. A large percentage of roles are filled internally, and many postings exist mainly to meet policy requirements rather than reflect active hiring.
