Hi everyone,

Looking for a job in Spain is not something you can take lightly, especially now. If you found a new job in Spain during the pandemic or if you are currently searching for one, we would like to know how it went.

How did you go about it? Which job board do you recommend? Did you use a headhunter?
In which sector did you find a job?

Did you train in order to find a new position? If so, which training course(s) did you follow and why?

What about your package? How does it compare with your previous jobs and are you satisfied with it?

What are the most important elements to prioritise or negotiate in a package for a job in Spain in 2021?

Thanks for your contribution!

Diksha,

Hi,

I´ve a job in Spain for a couple of years and during the pandemic, the situation had been tricky but the company where I am managed to go forwards and has been developping it business since the beggining of 2021.
Is it difficult to find a job here ? I would say it depends on your profile, your requirements and your linguistic skill from my point of view.

Thank you

Spain is waiting for the PBI very important after the end of the pandemic. It's noticeable now and will be more in the future.
That doesn't mean that great salaries and benefits will be available at the same time, Spanish entrepreneurs are very cautious, and will be better in a couple of years.

Also is important your profile, the area of expertise, and, to work in a Spanish company, your level of Spanish,

Anyway, working here has it's perks and cons.
