Your situation seems to be what Louise Bremner guessed it was.

Frankly as other people said I wouldn't get married just for the sake of 
getting a job in Japan.

If you do want to get married, I don't suppose the procedure is any 
different from what you'd have to do if you got married to a Dutch lady. 
Your girlfriend would need to contact her embassy I suppose.

Getting a visa to work in Japan just requires going to the Japanese embassy, 
I mean, ask them, not some clowns on a newsgroup.

What kind of job is it any way?

Can't you get a job in the Netherlands?

See you, take care, bye.
