Moving to Ireland - banks etc?

Question

I am thinking of moving to Ireland - I already have a job offer and will be living somewhere in South Dublin. I'm looking for recommendations on things I will need to set up over there. Which Bank to use in particular...but also anything I might not have thought of, like any tax savings possible etc. I am a little surprised at the amount of tax that will be taken from salary. I think I will end up with about €2,000 net per month. Is that a comfortable salary in Dublin, I hear nights out aren't exactly cheap there!
And advice appreciated!
