> in certain EU countries it's not a good idea to have a gap in your employment, as it is used to calculate your holidays and retirement savings.

I have not heard of something like that. Sure the more month you have worked the more you paid into the retirement insurance, but a couple of months won't make a difference.

Not sure which employer would give you less holidays either.

In Belgium your legal vacation days are calculated based on the number of days you have worked the previous year.
