I'm interested in moving to a Scandinavian country. I'm not to particular as to which one but Denmark would be cool.
Anyone have any idea or advice on how I can make this a happen.
Currently I'm a commercial diver (though I suspect no company there would hire me as such as hear Americans have a hard time internationally in that industry)
I'm in my late twenties
I can speak English, Polish, and a little French.

If you're moving to Scandinavia don't chose the country with central Europe climate.

As a citizen from a country outside of the Nordic region, EU/EEA or Switzerland you need to have a residence and work permit before arriving in Denmark.
Residence and work permit Before you arrive in Denmark, you need to fill out a form to apply for a residence and work permit for your stay. There are a number of different forms available depending on the reason and the length of your stay.
The application for a residence and work permit must be delivered in person to a Danish diplomatic mission (embassy or consulate general) since your biometric features (facial image and fingerprints) are recorded when you submit the application.
How to apply How you apply for a residence and work permit, and on what conditions,depends on a series of factors such as your education, qualifications and the type of job you have been offered.
These factors determine whether you can apply via a series of schemes such as the Danish Pay Limit Scheme, Researcher scheme, the Green card scheme, self employment etc.
You can read more about the conditions and find all the application schemes for residence and work permits for you and your family on the website newtodenmark.dk.
CPR registration As a citizen from a country outside of EU/EEA or Switzerland, you are obligated to register in the Civil Registration System (CPR) after you arrive, if you want to reside in Denmark for more than three months.

You can register in the CPR system as soon as you have received your residence and work permit from Danish Agency for International Recruitment and Integration. Contact International Citizen Service or the citizen service centre (Borgerservice) at your local municipality. Remember to bring:
Residence and work permit Marriage certificate if you are married Birth certificates if you have children Original passport or other valid travel document Proof of address in Denmark (rental agreement or similar) Health insurance card When you are registered in the CPR, you must choose a doctor (general practitioner). You will receive a health insurance card with your Danish CPR number and your doctor’s name and address. The health insurance card gives you the right to healthcare services on the same terms as other citizens in Denmark.
Your children are covered by the health insurance scheme together with you until they reach the age of 15 and are insured independently of their parents.
You can find out more about the national health Insurance at Lifeindenmark.dk - Healthcare.
Tax registration When you begin working, your employer must have access to the information from your tax card before you can receive your salary.
You must have a tax number even if you do not have a CPR number, for example if your stay in Denmark is less than six months or because you are not a resident in Denmark (commuter).
You can apply for tax number and tax card by completing tax form 04.063. Please note that you only need to get a tax number if you have not had one issued previously.
Read more about tax registration and how to apply at the Danish tax authority's homepage.

I'm wondering what works better in the circumstances of employment. To seek employment there via telephone calls prior to entering the country and filling out all other documents upon entry.
Or would I have better look arriving there and proceeding with all the paperwork as I try to obtain employment.

Don't listen to them OP, denmark is facing a demographic catastrophy and need all the virile young immigrants it can get to sustain their hordes of pensioners. Move there as quick as you can. It's literally the best place on earth and one of the only countries in europe with job opportunities.

what is there a xenophobia or do they just hate renting to foreigners because they come, fail to get a job and have to break their lease early and skip the country? Is it just like this in Denmark or other places as well?
I don't man. Long Island, NY, and South Oregon are pretty lame.
