Hello everyone  looking for seasonal work this summer but I have called all the major staffing firms (10 of them) talked to hiring managers and no one wants to take non EU nationals I even filled out 20 CV's online but the issue is they have to offer the job before a work permit is issued (form TV6_)  The job comes first before a permit is issued and they don't want that. Anyone knows farmers or companies who are willing to fill out that form essentially confirming a job offer ? who urgently need help with cattle farm work labor forestry or agricultural help (basically seasonal work) because its easier to get permits and they're short term !

I am going, to be frank with you here. If large companies will not offer you work and spend time organising a visa for you (Costs money to do so.) Farms are not going to as they can get labour from other EU countries.
