Do both, DS. It doubles your chances of success. Both Brookfield and CAE in Amsterdam are actively looking at the moment, but you'll make more money as a contractor to begin with. If FR like the cut of your jib they'll offer you a permanent contract after a while anyway. Appartments are not usually difficult or expensive in BGY but quite a lot more expensive in CIA, where I'm told that around €1000 per month and you'll be living like Caesar, though possibly without the orgies.
