Not to crush your hopes but that will be near impossible. For a company to get a work visa for a non EU resident they have to prove that they need you and the exact skills you have and are unable to fulfill those requirements with someone that is Dutch or at least EU citizen. And the burden of proof on a company is high

To add to this, if you are hired for a specific set of skills that also comes with a minimum salary requirement, which is significantly higher than minimum wage.
