A recruitment roadshow beginning next Sunday in Dublin's RDS, plans to fill over 1,000 vacancies available in information technology companies. Recruitment firm, The High Skills Pool (HSP), plans to tackle the growing skills shortage by targeting potential employees within eastern Europe when it hosts a similar roadshow in Budapest on May 20th and 21st, and Prague on June 10th and 11th.

The roadshow will see 40 of the Republic's leading companies collaborating to promote career opportunities in the IT sector. Participating companies include AOL, Compaq, Intel, Lucent Technologies, and Hewlett Packard.
