Hello!
I'm hoping to find a good English speaking job in The Netherlands. I can read basic Dutch because of my boys kids' books (Dikkie Dik, Nijntje, Kikker en Haas), but I haven't studied it as hard as I should because I'm constantly working on certifications. Completed CCNP Security in the spring and now working towards CISSP. After that I'm interested in GIAC courses and possibly CISA.
I've sent my CV to several employers there and I always receive positive feedback, but it always comes down to speaking the language and living in NL. I was hoping to be offered a job as a part of the highly skilled migrant program. If anyone has advice to provide I am open to any help that you can provide.
Thanks in advance!

Did you tried international companies who are based here?
I love the child books you mentioned

I've tried every company I can think of including my former employer BT (British Telecommunications). NATO, Deloitte, Philips, KPN, Swift, CGI, and more. If you have any recommendations I can compare that to the long list I've already made. 
When my Dutch improves I'll read Jip en Janneke
