It largely depends upon whether you are fortunate enough to secure a job offer BEFORE you come to Spain, or if you intend to come to Spain and THEN start to look for work. As an American citizen you do not need any documentation at all to enter and remain in the country for up to 90 Days. As soon as you know that you wish to stay here longer than that you will be required to apply to become resident here in Spain as a Non-EU citizen - there are a number of different types of Residency certificates that you could apply for depending on your reasons and circumstances - most notably whether you have been successful in finding work or not.

Basic Spanish alone cannot guarantee a job in Spain, although it would definitely help. You would need to have a willing employer to sponsor your work permit. You can go there as a tourist, but it would be difficult to look for a job because you need a "carta de residencia" to work, which is only available for EU citizens. There's a way out, though. I would suggest that you go there as a tourist, get to know the locals, and marry a Spaniard or an EU citizen. Once you've obtained your residence permit, you can work in Spain. Just make sure, however, that you marry out of love and not because you just want to stay in Spain. You can also enroll in a Spanish language class to hone your skills. Who knows, you might impress somebody who owns a company and they'll take you in?!

If you work for an airline that has offices in Spain then check with them. I would suggest you contact the Spanish embassy and ask for their advice. Yes, you could arrive as a tourist and then enquire at a police station for advice. I´m sure you trying to speak Spanish would be appreciated.

http://europa.eu.int/eures/home.jsp?lang=en http://www.inem.es/ Here the oficial language is Spanish, but maybe if you come to Barcelona to work they told you need Catalan also to work there, so better look in these sites, in a place like Madrid, Andalucia, Islas Canarias, Castilla Leon, Castilla la Mancha places which not have other language than Spanish. And try to improve your Spanish.... http://www.mir.es/ http://www.mae.es/es/home If you work in a airline, why dont you look for a job in a spanish airline? Look there, http://www.aena.es/csee/Satellite?pagename=Home http://www.spanair.com/ http://www.iberia.com/?market=ES http://www.clickair.com/view/default.aspx?lang=1 I think thats all. And ask in the embassy of Spain in your country!!

Your best bet is to get a quadband unlocked gsm phone.That's basically a fancy way of saying that it is a sim card phone that has been modifed to take sims besides the original phone has. Quadband. Means it has all the four gsm radio/cellular wavelengths used both in the US and internationally. The US has two bands, Spain has two bands. They are not compatible. A quadband phone has all four so can be used both sides of the Atlantic. Unlocked, means that you have freed it up so that ANY gsm sim can be used in the phone including most foreign ones. You take an Att iphone and unlock it , it can be used with Tmobile and international sims. Once you get quadband phone, I'll explain what to do. Gsm, a type of technology used in cell phones. Gsm phones are easy to identify because they usually have sim cards. Gsm technology using companies include Tmobile and Att. Cdma/non sim card phones are incompatible and are used by Verizon /Sprint and others. Most of the world uses gsm. Not to be mixed up with iden uses sim cards that look and fit the same but are incompatible with gsm . Biggest difference is that iden has walkie talkie capability too. Boost Mobile and Nextel are iden. Get an Att phone, they are easier to unlock. Don't get the cheapest, because they are not usually quadband. Something like a Razr or better usually is. If in doubt, check the phone out at phonescoop.com. If you buy it from Walmart, whatever, DON'T activate it. Call Att customer service up, tell them you bought it second hand via flea market whatever, you are going overseas and that it is an Att phone. They will usually help even if you are not a customer. Tmobile does not. Ask to have it unlocked. They will email you a code or tell you over the phone. You put a non Att sim in it, like Tmobile, borrow a friends and punch in the code. It should unlock. Go online, buy a Spanish gsm or international global sim , whichever is cheaper, pop it into your new unlocked quadband phone and Hablas Espanol away. Ole!
