The company, which employs more than 3,000 people in Ireland, said it hopes the announcement will encourage more Irish abroad to come home.

Feargal O'Rourke, PwC Ireland Managing Partner, says they're looking for quality staff:

"One of the big lessons we learned, and I learned, back in the crisis - if you keep the bar high for people and recruit really quality people in good times and bad, they will see you well... We are determined to keep our recruitment bar high, get quality people, you'll come out of any recession."

He spoke to Breakfast business earlier:

Meanwhile, Microsoft has announced 160 new jobs.
