The problem will be the language. Except a few companies/branches the spoken language is Danish. As an expat you'll have to compete with native applicants who have home advantage.

My best advice to you will be to look at job ads which is written in English (Italian) to see what emerges. Of course, you can also take a look at the Danish ads, maybe try some of them.

Unless the race doesn't belong to the blacklisted races, dogs are well accepted in society. However, a dog can complicate finding a housing as many landlords don't want animals in their apartments.

An addition to this list that calls for a shoutout is the handyman platform Pinploy.dk , i is another great way to find smaller jobs when you arrive in Denmark and are finding your footing!

Good luck
