Hello
Thanks for your reply.
Do I need to look into a working visa? How did you go about getting a job over there?

Hi Carly, there's a website full of info for people looking to move over and work in the Netherlands - here's the link: http://www.expatica.com/nl/

The link that seem most relevant to your search:

Hey good luck with the move (sorry if this message is late in case you are already there). It can be daunting moving countries as it takes you out of your comfort zone for a bit, but you'll be settled into a new routine in no time and new beginnings open up a lot of new opportunities. Sadly I've never visited Amsterdam-quite envious of you, but not in a bitter way- but I've heard its really great out there. Good luck with work as well I'm sure it'll be great.
