As a German passport holder then you are free to move to the Netherlands and start looking for work and do not need a work permit http://www.undutchables.nl/working-in-the-netherlands/work-permit/. If you stay longer than 3 months then you must register http://www.undutchables.nl/working-in-the-netherlands/residence-permit/ with the IND (Dutch immigration dept) http://www.ind.nl/EN/index.asp but this is a formality. Upon moving to the Netherlands and finding a place to live, you have to register at the local town hall (gemeentehuis), and after registeration you will apply & receive a BSN number http://www.undutchables.nl/working-in-the-netherlands/citizens-service-number-formerly-sofi-number/. You will need this number to obtain a job (to pay taxes amongst other things) Here are some links to finding jobs here https://www.werk.nl/portal/page/portal/werk_nl/werknemer/working_in_the_netherlands_wn/inenglish

As far as I know then there are no agencies in the UK handling vacancies for unskilled work in the Netherlands. The reason why is that there is simply no need to do so (same as British agencies recruiting for the UK in the Netherlands, for the same type of work. I know many Eastern European countries have the monopoly on these jobs in the UK!) In the Netherlands we have agencies and you google them as 'Uitzendburo' or 'Uitzendbureau'. There are general ones which have all types of jobs or there are specialist agencies covering certain area's e.g. agricultural jobs If you are serious about working in the Netherlands then the best thing you can do is to get in contact with some of the agencies and put feelers out to see what kind of response you get. To be honest you are going to struggle to find an abundance of unskilled labour positions with English only, but of course it is worth a try Here is a link to the English version of the Yellow Pages in the Netherlands http://yellowpages.goudengids.nl/displayhome.ds?locale=en_NL&visitorUid=8a90219019e8964d0119fceb83741af7&passwordToken=E644C26C-E692-C22B-C325-C9DC39460A68&newSearch=true&previousPath=displayhome and here is a link (in Dutch though) to a listing of the agencies which is produced by the centre of work & income CWI https://www.werk.nl/portal/page/portal/werk_nl/werknemer/meer_weten/werk_zoeken/anderewebsitesoverwerk/uitzendbureaus You can use Google translate which will do a rough job of translation (but should be good enough to understand the basics http://translate.google.com/translate_t?hl=en&sl=nl&tl=en# Here is the link (in Dutch) to the listing of the job vacancy database of websites on the CWI site https://www.werk.nl/portal/page/portal/werk_nl/werknemer/meer_weten/werk_zoeken/anderewebsitesoverwerk/vacaturebanken but most will be in Dutch only Therefore you can also look at the following sites which are in English There are also some sites in English where English language jobs are placed: The most famous one is http://www.undutchables.nl Then here are a couple more that I know of: http://www.bluelynx.nl http://www.xpatjobs.com http://jobs.expatica.com/nl What you can also do is check the Dutch version of Monsterboard and type "English" in the 'trefwoord' (keyword) field http://www.monsterboard.nl One thing I would really say though is that Amsterdam is great as a holiday location but as with everywhere it is different to actually live and work in another country with it's culture & language. Also accomodation is exceptionally expensive in & around Amsterdam due to it's popularity I would really advise you to come over for say a week and in that time go around the agencies to get an idea of how easy it will be for you to get a job and find accomodation. Then try to live as if you were living here as a local - e.g go to a supermarket and imagine doing the weekly shopping. Talk to people and get a feel of the city/country but imagine being here without your network of friends & family. Often it is a case of "the grass being greener on the other side"until you realise that the grass actually needs to be cut on the other side as well when you actually live and work there. Many of the issues that are taking place in the UK are not so dis-similar to here. However putting the difficulties aside, if after your trip you still want to do it, then go for it. It can be a really great experience living & working in another country and you can learn a lot and grow personally from it - if nothing else it looks interesting on your cv! Good luck

Will my ATM card work in Holland
Will my ATM card work in Holland?
I have an ATM card from Peoples United Bank on the back, there are Cirrus, Maestro, and NYCE logos. Will this ATM card work in the netherlands ?

1 :
yes it will I been there before with a Bank of america debit. you can use it in any ATM machne.
2 :
Any ATM with a cirrus or maestro logo should work. In the netherlands that's about 99.9% of them.
3 :
Yes, the ATM wil accept your card. click this link, you wil see which cards a Dutch ATM accepts. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/94/Geldautomaat.jpg/800px-Geldautomaat.jpg
4 :
Yes but expect a lower or higher conversion rate depending on your country, like if you're from the UK, then expect less pounds deducted from your bank account. If you're say from the United States, and you take out 100 Euros expect say $129 deducted from your bank account. Include like a $5 bank fees or surcharge. Most of the ABN accept those three.
5 :
Yes it will work, however inform your bank that you will be travelling abroad as they may think your card has been stolen and refuse cash, then keep your card!!!

Hi I left your question as I didn't know any factory based job agencies or UK based ones. Basically there are many job agencies in NL and some of them do specialise in certain area's. A job agency is an 'Uitzendburo' or 'Uitzendburo' and factory work is 'fabriekwerk' You can also look in English in the yellow pages if you want (link here in English). http://yellowpages.goudengids.nl/displayhome.ds?locale=en_NL&visitorUid=8a90219019e8964d0119fceb83741af7&passwordToken=E644C26C-E692-C22B-C325-C9DC39460A68&newSearch=true&previousPath=displayhome Concerning UK based agencies - I'm not sure what you mean? There are a couple of sites which specialise in English language jobs although the majority are office based ones or warehouse clerks, but you can take a look and also contact them, they should be able to direct you if they can't help you themselves The most famous one is http://www.undutchables.nl Then here are a couple more that I know of: http://www.bluelynx.nl http://www.xpatjobs.com http://jobs.expatica.com/nl What you can also do is check the Dutch version of Monsterboard and type "English" in the 'trefwoord' (keyword) field http://www.monsterboard.nl Good luck.
