Maria Cahill Labour
My first blog on the Seanad By-Election 2015 focussed on Mairia Cahill because she is the likely winner having both government party's Labour and Fine Gael's support and was only person nominated at the time I wrote it. You can read her deleted Linkedin CV there. Strangely she has rarely specifically said she works for the Probations Services Office in Northern Ireland for 8 years.

— Awaken Longford (@AwakenLongford) October 11, 2015Vocational Panel
The Seanad is the Upper house of the Irish parliament, the Oireachtas. It has 60 members elected either by nominating bodies, other TDs, Senators and local councillors, or by appointment by the Taoiseach.
Those elected are nominated to 6 panels based on vocations, Administrative Panel, Agricultural Panel, Cultural and Educational Panel, Industrial and Commercial Panel, Labour Panel.
Industrial and Commercial Panel Wikipedia.
Its meant to be a house of people with knowledge and experience in various areas to review legislation and bring their expertise to the Seanad and Joint Oireachtas Committees, perhaps somebody who has been already engaging on relevant issues on a natioanl level, but it mostly used by political partys to give prominence to failed/future Dail election candidates.
Constitution of Ireland
7 1° Before each general election of the members of Seanad Éireann to be elected from panels of candidates, five panels of candidates shall be formed in the manner provided by law containing respectively the names of persons having knowledge and practical experience of the following interests and services, namely:–
iv Industry and Commerce, including banking, finance, accountancy, engineering and architecture;
Seanad Electoral (Panel Members) Act, 1947
the expression “the industrial and commercial panel” means the panel required by the said subsection 1° to contain the names of persons having knowledge and practical experience of the following interests and services, namely, industry and commerce, including banking, finance, accountancy, engineering, and architecture;
S.I. No. 91/1954 - Seanad Electoral (Panel Members) (Prescribed Forms) Regulations, 1954.
The current members of the Industry and Commerce panel are Averil Power Ind (ex FF), Mary M White FF, Marc MacSharry FF, Imelda Henry FG, Paul Coghlan FG, Colm Burke FG, Kathryn Reilly SF, Catherine Noone FG. Looking at the qualification (sheet8) Oireachtas Sub-Panel members of the Industry and Commerce, although maybe looking at a low bar because all 3 were failed election candidates at the preceding general election.

Qualifications
In the run up to the 2014 bye-election TheJournal's Hugh O'Connell was first to interview now Senator Gerard Craughwell This man wants to stop the ‘silly charade’ and run for the Seanad Aug 8th 2014. I asked him to publish his CV. He was running for the 2014 Seanad Bye election Cultural and Educational panel.
I have decided to publish on Facebook a copy of my press release for the Seanad by-election with my CV to review see https://t.co/tIgpR7LnIU
— Senator G Craughwell (@GCraughwell) September 18, 2014Gerard Craughwell's CV published September 18, 2014.
I searched for times when the Seanad Clerk queried qualifications for panels.
Kathy Sinott in 2002. Disability rights campaigner to run for Seanad. She as allowed run for the Labour Panel. Thomas Byrne in 2011, who wasn't allowed run for the agriculture panel so he ran for Educational and Cultural panel based on his legal qualifications.
Qualifications Criteria Reform
The Working Group on Seanad Reform suggested changes to the qualifications criteria, they don't apply now, but there are not radical and could be a guide to making a judgement about this by-election's candidates qualifications. Final Seanad Reform Report
The Working Group recommends that the level of knowledge and practical experience required by the constitution be defined in legislation.
Legal Issues Concerning Reform Of Seanad Franchise And Nominations - Michael McDowell Feb 2015.
It is constitutionally open to the Oireachtas to enact a law for the formation of panels under Article 18.7.1 fora process where, on objective criteria, the nomination of a candidate required that the candidate requiredsignificant degree of knowledge and a significant degree of practical experience of one, some or all of the“interests and services” to which the panel relates, rather than simply “some knowledge and some practicalexperience”,
It is also open to the Oireachtas by law to:
(a) establish objective minimum standards both of knowledge and of practical experience of the relevant“interests and services” to be eligible for nomination and
(b) establish a body capable of deciding whether any particular nominee satisfies such standards.
WGSR Draft Bill
11. Knowledge and practical experience.
Part IV of the Act of 1947 is amended in Chapter II by inserting the following before section 25 -
“Knowledge and practical experience.
24A.
(1) This section gives further effect to the requirement set out in Article 18.7 of the Constitution which requires a person seeking to be a candidate in a Seanad general election to have knowledge and practical experience of the interests and services pertaining to the constituency in respect of which he or she is seeking to be elected.
(2) The requirement that a person mentioned in subsection (1) have knowledge and practical experience of the interests and services pertaining to the constituency in respect of which he or she is seeking to be elected may be met by establishing to the satisfaction of a judicial referee that he or she has-
(i)
(a) attained a formal qualification, or
(b) through several years of work experience, has attained a level of knowledge which can be regarding as being equivalent to a formal qualification, in a field which is of direct relevance to the constituency in respect of which he or she is seeking to become a candidate, and
(ii) has verifiable practical experience which is of direct relevance to the constituency in respect of which he or she is seeking to become a candidate.
(3) Notwithstanding the generality of subsection (1), persons seeking nomination to the–
...
(d) industrial and commercial constituency shall, to the satisfaction of the judicial assessor, demonstrate knowledge and practical experience of the following
interests and services, namely, industry and commerce, including banking, finance, accountancy, engineering, and architecture;
...
(5) A person who has previously served as a member of the Seanad shall be deemed to meet the knowledge and practical experience requirements of Article
18.7 of the Constitution and therefore subsections (2), (3) and (4) shall not apply in respect of the nomination of such persons.
(6) The Seanad Electoral Commission, having consulted with the Minister for Justice, shall appoint a serving or former Judge of the Superior Courts to serve as a judicial assessor for the purpose of this section.
(7) In order to be eligible for inclusion in a replacement candidates list provided for under section 57, a person shall satisfy the requirements of this section
