How hard is it to find work in Spain with only basic Spanish?
Hi, I'm a chef from England and have just returned from travelling in Central America. I am in Spain now and having trouble finding opportunities for work. My Spanish is pretty basic but I worked in a hotel in Nicaragua with all local chefs and managed fine. I realise the economy/employment situation in Spain but any tips, advice, websites would be great.
Muchas gracias
Spain has some of the highest unemployment in Europe but there are opportunities to work there. Maybe try improving your Spanish in your free time as being fluent will really improve your chances of finding employment. Also you will usually need an EU passport as without it you will need to get a company to sponsor your visa which can be difficult.
I'm hoping to work in Spain this summer and my Spanish is terrible lol.
