How/Where to look for temporary work in Amsterdam while searching for a long-term career opportunity

I speak fluent Dutch and English.
I have a Dutch passport and born and raised here fyi.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been unemployed since December and have been receiving unemployment benefits (WW-uitkering) until the end of May. That period is ending now, and due to my savings and the fact that I live in a private sector rental apartment, I most likely won’t qualify for social assistance (Bijstandsuitkering). So I’ll soon have to rely on my own savings, which honestly aren’t that big either and is a big waste of money.

I currently live in a private rental apartment in Amsterdam, so my monthly costs are quite high, and my savings are limited.

At the same time, I’m still searching for a long-term position that really fits my background and ambitions. Until I find that “right” job (or something close to it), I’m looking for temporary work that I can start relatively quickly.

Honestly, I’m mainly looking for something straightforward and practical:

-Amsterdam.
-Very quick to start.
-Not find it any problem if I suddenly leave after 1 or 2 months notice period.
-Good pay of course haha

Thanks in advance.
