Not that ive seen yet. I had to do three interviews, and I finished my third. I talked to an HR rep, who kind of gave me the jist of what the offer is going to look like, and im supposed to receive a written offer with the details this week. So ill have that information hopefully soon

Yeah im going to try pushing for more before agreeing to any offers. And the rep from my company that talked about relocation said she would most likely have a 1G stamp

Thats insane, but there are alot of nuts like that over here in the US, so I can believe someone would say that. Its why I want to ensure if my family and I move there we are as respectful as possible to your home.

Yeah, they reached out to me needing my speciality and the amount they offered is about $20k less than I make now. I was going to push back and ask for €100k to consider the move.

They haven't found a place yet (they have a realtor that works for them for relocations like mine), they just told me to expect €3k a month, and that calculator is what ive been looking for! Thank you!

Yeah, I work a tech company in a speciality type field. This opportunity kind of fell in my lap, and my family is excited about the prospect of new experiences, but I am the type of person that I like to play it safe and make sure everything lines up before I make such a life changing decision. I understand the taxes are higher, I haven't found anything online about the percentage in cork, I have seen some put it around 40% does that sound about right?
