Easy Work-permits around Amsterdam?

15 years ago
Hello all, I permanently moved to Europe (currently in Germany), and I needed to ask the forum if it is any easier in Netherlands for a US Citizen to obtain a work-permit if one is not highly educated? Here in Germany I have 4 job offers but its taking much too long for my new work-permit change to be approved or denied and I think the Companies who want me will not wait.

Until I learn the language better I intend to do simpler jobs which not many EU locals want but is this simply possible around Amsterdam? If not, what EU Countries should I try to settle in instead?

Does anyone know any Americans doing simpler type jobs with little problems anywhere in the EU? In what EU Country can one utilize Temp-Agencies or similar private Job Service offices? Germany has a law that generally prohibits Temp-Agencies for foreigners.

I would greatly appreciate anyone's advice (but please no sales pitches for services). Thanks!
