The economy in Ireland is faltering (as they are everywhere), so now is quite possibly the worst time to go looking for a job. You are a few years late - many immigrants are leaving rather than emigrating to Ireland these days. Start researching the immigration/citizenship requirements in the meantime.Can you get EU citizenship through family(heredity)? There is a lot of information and steps to the process. You can maintain dual citizenship, US and the ROI, but getting Irish citizenship is complicated and takes awhile, just as becoming a naturalized citizen in the US is. You need to read up on the process. Get your papers, etc... in order and then wait until the economy sorts itself out a bit. A few years. Be aware that with dual citizenship/living abroad the taxes are a problem.

Why? 'Need to'? Get citizenship of another EU country first, then you can live and work anywhere in the EU, including Ireland. Now is definitely not a good time.
