Maybe unrelated but Dublin has an insane housing crisis. You need to offer large incentives for people to come to try to find housing.

I know a company who agreed to pay €5,000/mo for an aparthotel while they find somewhere. The person came from far edges of Europe, not a specialised or very senior role at all
