Ok I checked it out and you are probably refering to this "Stichting Wabof" The contact details are Stichting Wabof (Stichting Werving Arbeid Biologische ondernemers Flevoland) Dodaarsweg 21 3897 LP ZEEWOLDE +31 36 5228682 The details are very sketchy though and they don't seem to have a website so you would have to call to make contact One thing though, do note that unless you are already legally entitled to work in the Netherlands (ie have the legal status already or hold an EEA passport, they will not be able to provide seasonal work in the Netherlands for you as you would need a visa, and a visa would not be provided for this kind of work)

How can I obtain a work permit in Holland
How can I obtain a work permit in Holland?
I'm an American Citizen but I need to move to Holland to be close to my Dutch fiancee while he finishes school. I need to work there but I can't get a job without a work permit and I can't get a work permit without a job. I even speak a low level of Dutch and am qualified for many jobs but I just can't get hired locally in Holland while I'm living in the US. I would also need a residence permit. This seems like an insurmountable task. Ik hou van mijn vriend, maar ik woon zo fer van hij! (we met while i worked as a volunteer there for a year, so I do have a SOFI nummer but no permit)

How do I apply for a Netherlands Work Permit? Unless the candidate is exempted from the MVV requirement (ie. is a national of: any EU country, Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, Japan, New Zealand, Australia, Canada or the United States), the first stage of the process requires the candidate to make an application for a temporary residence permit/visa (MVV) through his/her local Royal Netherlands embassy. Workpermit.com can then lodge a work permit application on your behalf at the Regional Employment Board (RBA) who approve it initially and pass it to the National Employment Board (AFB)/Arbeitsbureau who make the final decision, after having considered the national and EC labour markets. There is a separate employment office who consider highly-skilled IT professional work permit applications. When the work permit is approved, the residence permit is issued by the Embassy and the candidate may then travel to the Netherlands and begin working. Where no MVV is required, the candidate can enter the Netherlands by producing the work permit together with their passport. Note that non-visa nationals may travel to the Netherlands to attend business meetings whilst their work permit is being processed, but they may not begin working, of course, until the work permit is approved.

It depends if it's coded to be regional-specific. Europe uses PAL, US uses NTSC

Yes, but the formatting will be different (NTSC as opposed to PAL), so the computer must be able to play this, which it probably will.
3 :
You say "work in his computer" so I assume that you're talking about a PC game, am I right? If so, the answer is yes, PC's are the same all over the world, you just want to make sure his pc has the required specifications, like fast enough processor and good enough videocard and such... PAL and NTSC has to do with televisions, not computers. If you're talking about a console game, let us know what console you're talking about... I do believe some games also have regional limitations on some consoles...

If you are going to work with patients you will have to learn Dutch before you are allowed 'at the beds'. But nurses are one of the few groups of people that can get work visa. There are also a few positions available where you will not work with patients in a hospital situation, and there good and understandable English may be enough, (no heavy accents,) but there will be a lot of competition for those positions.

it's not easy, in holland first you have to speak fluently dutch language, and then to have a dutch diploma even if you are going to do cleaning work, there are very few places to work only with the english language, in holland they ask a lot for foreigners.
