The Limerick Local Employment Service (LES) provides a free and confidential information, guidance and job-searching support to job-seekers. Our goal is to provide a range of quality professional services to unemployed jobseekers to help them find suitable employment, training and educational opportunities. We work with both job-seekers and employers.
