It is my understanding that residing legally in the Netherlands for 5 years or more makes you eligible to apply for citizenship. As mentioned above, if you can find a company registered with IND for knowledge immigrants, who will offer to pay you a sufficient wage (a bit over 43K euro last time I looked), obtaining a visa is a simple process.
