Yawa,

I dont know what you mean when you say they need a 'reference'. I can tell you this kind of thing doesnt really happen in NL, or in most other countries in Europe. You wont get rejected from a job just because you dont have a 'reference' or a 'contact' there. Question is do you have the right paperwork and skills?

If you are on a student visa, then you will be allowed to work maybe a limited number of hours (Check this with your university's International office). Your best bet is to use an agency to find some basic work like call centre or something, they might be able to help you. This kind of work is temporary in nature and readily available.

I know the situation in NL isnt that great with regards to jobs, and I wouldnt be surprised if you dont find anything straight away.

Good Luck
