Article Abstract:
Ireland's direct marketing agencies have their work cut out for them by the country's information technology (IT) industry, to bring home Irish expatriates holding jobs in the US.

As part of the campaign to stem the acute labor shortage, Ireland's direct marketing agencies have launched job fairs to attract US-based Irish nationals as well as American IT personnel.
