Applying for software engineering roles in Amsterdam
What the market looks like
A high share of international employers and English-language roles makes Amsterdam accessible without Dutch, though local-market roles still favour Dutch speakers.
Language
English is genuinely common in Amsterdam postings, more so than anywhere else on this list — but Dutch-language roles exist and expect Dutch.
What software engineering employers look for
The systems you actually built, the scale they ran at, and your specific contribution. Listing technologies without context is the most common weakness.
