Yes, you can get a post-study work permit in both the Netherlands and Ireland.
- Netherlands: After graduation, you can apply for the "Orientation Year" permit, allowing you to stay for 12 months to find a job or start a business.
- Ireland: The Third Level Graduate Programme (Stamp 1G) lets you stay and work full-time after your studies. Bachelor's graduates can stay for 12 months; master's graduates can stay up to 24 months (12 months initially, with a possible 12-month extension).
Both options provide strong opportunities to gain work experience after your degree.
