Finding a starter job in Denmark without knowing Danish

Hey everyone!

I'm a Brazilian with EU citizenship who moved to Ireland to get a new job as a pharmacist or in the pharma industry, get things together and then pursue my life dream: move to Denmark and do my MSc in Pharmaceutical Sciences.

Things have not gone exactly to plan, and even with some experience and fluent English, I couldn't find a job in my field and have ended up at McD for some time now. So if I'm already in Europe working at a job that i wasnt expecting to, shouldnt I work in the same type of job in the country that I always dreamed of?

So I would like to know how hard you guys think it is to get a starter job in Denmark without speaking Danish (been studying for a while but its very basic so far). I know it will be harder to find a job as a pharmacist in Denmark for not having enough experience, so I'm okay with doing some jobs like receptionist, sales assistant or waiter, and I'm not even picky about the city. Since I plan to try to do my masters any time soon, being immersed in the culture and the language would be a huge deal for me already.

Do you have any tips or advice? I'm currently checking jobs on jobsinenglish and sent messages to some job agencies, but I don't know if this is a good way to enter or if its too hard getting these jobs while I'm not in the country.

Thanks in advance (:
