You need a job. Highest unemployment rate in the EU. Good luck.

Where are you from?, if you are from another EU country it should be pretty simple.

Since you ask the question in the US section of Y!A I assume you are a U.S. citizen. To be able to work in Spain you will need a residence visa which authorizes to work. In order to get that visa you must find an employer in Spain who is willing to take the burden to apply for an Official Work Authorization from the Spanish labor office. He would have to justify that he is not able to fill his vacancy by the workforce of Spain (14% unemployed) and of the entire European Union. To tell you the truth, as a student who just has finished college the chances to find an employer willing to take all those administrative burdens to instate a non-European without work experience will be below 0.1%.
