How to move to Amsterdam?

8 years ago
I've been reading around the internet and am not finding a clear answer. I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm an American who would like to move to Amsterdam. I do not have a job lined up and would need one. I'm an IT professional and believe I have valuable skills. My question is in what order should I be lining things up? Should I try lining up a job before I come? If I can't, can I just come over and try to find a job then? I still wouldn't have a green card or work visa at that point so would that hurt my job search? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
