The record
The record for Roscommon University Hospital in 2026 is 6 employment permits, the pattern of an employer that fills a specific gap from abroad rather than a whole shift.
Roscommon University Hospital first shows up in the figures in 2016, and across 11 years it has been issued 229 employment permits in all, peaking at 52 in 2022. Recent years show a decline from the peak.
This year's permits came in 2 separate months, busiest in July with 4, which suggests a few distinct rounds of recruitment.
What this tells you
A gap filled from abroad
A small count usually means a specific skill that could not be found locally. If that is your skill, this employer already knows the route to you.
How to approach them
Time it to the rhythm
This year Roscommon University Hospital's permits peaked in July. Hiring rounds tend to repeat, so an application a couple of months ahead of that lands when the decision is being made.

What you need to work here
- A job offer and a contract of employment signed by you and the employer before anything is submitted. Applications must reach the Department at least 12 weeks before the start date.
- The right permit for the job. Most trades and driving roles go through a General Employment Permit, which is issued for 2 years and can be renewed. Roles on the Critical Skills list use a Critical Skills Employment Permit.
- Pay at or above the minimum for the permit. For a General Employment Permit the Department currently lists it as generally EUR 36,605 a year, with lower figures for meat processing, horticulture, healthcare assistants and home support. Check the official figure for your role before you rely on it.
