How hard is it to obtain an Ireland work visa?

Expert Info

Here is my rather atypical situation, I have a Canadian citizen friend who accepted a job offer from Google for a permanent position at their Dublin branch. The offer is for over over 60K+ Euros and it is for an IT/Computing Science related career[so its part of the Critical Skills list if that in any way is relevant]. Moreover he has no degree but has relevant work experience from high-school summer internships.My questions are therefore two-fold, how hard is it for him to obtain a work visa to Ireland and also what should his previous employer write in my friend's reference letter? Any replies will be welcomed

Once he has an offer he or the company will need to apply for the visa.
