Is it possible to get a work permit related to my job after completing my course in Netherlands/Italy for a Master's?
Yes, after completing your master's course in Europe, you can usually obtain a work permit related to your field of study. Most European countries offer a post-study work visa (PSW) that lets international graduates stay and seek employment for up to 12 months.
- Latvia, Belgium, Italy, and Spain: Offer a residence permit for job search, valid for up to 12 months. Once you secure a job in your field, you can convert this to a work permit.
- Netherlands: Provides a 1-year "Orientation Year" permit, allowing you to work for any employer. After finding a job, you can switch to a long-term work permit.
Policies and requirements - such as salary thresholds and job relevance - are subject to change.
