Working during Hibernia
I’m currently doing the Hibernia course and working as a sub in primary schools. Subbing has really dried up just as my course started a few weeks ago and I’m really starting to worry about money. I’m not entitled to any form of job seeker’s allowance for days I have no work. Hibernia is classified as a full time course even though I only had two lectures this week. I’m trying to find other work, but so far when I have been in contact with employers and let them know I can work Monday-Friday, and Sunday, 9-5, I haven’t heard back. Cafe/restaurant jobs require a lot of flexibility.
I also have to take two weeks off for the Gaeltacht in July. I do grinds some evenings a week and would love to be able to continue that throughout the Summer, I have a post-primary degree in English and French.
What have other people done for work during Hibernia?? I’m starting to get VERY stressed.
