I finally landed a job in Berlin after six months of searching, but the Anmeldung (address registration) process is a total nightmare. I’ve been refreshing the booking page every ten minutes for three days just to get an appointment. It feels like I’ve passed the boss level by getting the visa, only to get stuck on a side quest. Has anyone else dealt with this specific brand of German bureaucracy? How did you actually find an appointment without losing your mind?

Is Visa a stingy company?

I moved to the Netherlands 3 months ago on a spouse visa. Was working with EY-P earlier. I have been applying to jobs and giving interviews but for some reason things are not working out. I get a different reason everytime (after going through the whole process). This has never happened earlier in life and now I don't know what else to do.
