Ridiculous, I know. But I'll be graduating soon with a bachelor's in Computer Engineering from a US university. I'll make the question simple: how likely is it that I'll be able to find a remote job within a reasonable period after graduating? Unfortunately, that means I don't have relevant work experience yet, but:

• I'll take virtually anything, even if it's not related to my major.
• It doesn't have to pay well, I'll take $30,000/year if that's what it takes.
• I'm willing to put in effort all day every day to find something and I'm in a position where I have support. Again, I'll take practically anything.

Otherwise, is there an advisable course of action? Perhaps find an in-person job, work it for some amount of time(?), then restart the search? Also, hypothetically, if I had a spouse that was a Dutch citizen, would that make it possible for me to perhaps find remote work somewhere in Europe? This is a very real possibility for me.

I want to make it happen (a lot of other people do too, yes I know).

I'll be graduating from a US university soon with a bachelor's in Computer Engineering. I want to know how likely it is that I'd be able to find a job in the Netherlands given that I don't have any relevant work experience yet. Perhaps I'm insane, I know. Keeping in mind,

• I'm willing to take practically any job if I can get it, even if it's not related to my major. I'm also willing to live almost anywhere in the country.
• I'm not fluent in Dutch but have been learning it (even though English is a given there especially in engineering environments from what I understand).
• I don't need to be paid well, I'll take a minimum salary if that's what it takes. I have a support system in place.
• And the most important point: I can have a Dutch spouse. And not as part of a sham marriage either. It's the reason I'm considering all of this in the first place.
• Currently, this person lives and works in Belgium meaning I could have access to jobs there as well. However, they'd be very willing to move back home to the Netherlands given reason to.

Is it possible? Does anyone have advice? I'm willing to put serious effort to make it happen however necessary.

I'm in my 20s soon to graduate college with an engineering degree. The problem is, I've never had a job in my life, truth be told because I've never needed to work. I have supportive and generous parents including a father with a huge salary. However, I have to move on and become independent eventually and I want to start working from now on.

I live not far from a fairly major city. Is it likely I'll be able to find a job? Ideally something not heavily public facing like a cashier because I'm quite introverted and interacting with customers will drain me. I'll probably get myself in trouble at some point as a result too. Other than that, I'm quite open including to manual labor adjacent work.
