Hello , im moving from Italy to Holland, Rotterdam next month and im searching for a job in Rotterdam a job that can help me with my accommodation

Hi Kate and welcome to the Forum.

Your Forum information tells me your a Ghanaian citizen; as such you will need a residence and work permit (known as MVV) to live and work in the Netherlands, you will also need to pass a Dutch language exam as part of this.  This link will take you to the Dutch Government (IND) website that deals with this.

The only jobs that I can think of that may perhaps offer accommodation is hotel work, so my advice is to use Google to search for such work.

Hope this helps.

Okay but i have Italian documents such as carta soggiorno with that documents i can work in any European country...what about that?

Cynic

Hi again; a "carta soggiorno" is an Italian residence permit, nothing else.  You can use it with your Ghanaian passport as a travel document to other Schengen signatory countries and stay there for up to 90 days as a tourist; you may not work in any other country without getting the appropriate work visa and residence permit for that country.

Hope this helps.
