Depends on the settings of the phone and the rules of the company. Some do, some will not, but all that work will be way more expensive when used in Spain. If you want to use a phone in England mainly and a little in Spain, tell the people in the shop, so they can sell you one that will work. And they can also help you with the settings of the phone and 'contract' so that it will work there. If you want to use it as much, or more, in Spain, better buy a prepaid phone in Spain too.

Would it be difficult for a Chef to work in Spain if they don't speak Spanish
Would it be difficult for a Chef to work in Spain if they don't speak Spanish?
My friend in Birmingham wants to move to the Costa Del Sol, she has 5 years of work experience as a Chef and can only speak a bit of Spanish, she's a very slow learner, would it be hard for her to get a job? I know we're in a recession right now, this question is just hypothetical.

if they dont know any spanish what so ever yea might be alittle diffucult

Ummmmmmm, yeah. since people in Spain don't generally speak English...being Spain, and all. Besides, there aren't any jobs to have right now, you would do better to wait until the recession lifts, at best. Hey! By then, your friend could have learned Spanish!

There are English speaking restaurants here on the Costa del Sol. Quite a few are British owned and if you are British and are the owner, it is easier to discuss menus etc with an English speaking chef. I know 2 German restaurants where the owners only employ German speaking chefs. It is always going to be an advantage to speak the language, but it is not necessary in some cases. Jobs are hard to find at the moment, but there is a glimmer of optimism at the moment with the recession. Some new buildings have been sold and a couple of new restaurants have opened.

Ummm yeah it will be hard to land a chef gig in Spain, number #1 she is not fluent in Spanish. Its just saying if a guy from japan that speaks only Japanese comes to America and works at a high end restaurant here, is he going to have a hard time communicating with other chef's? Yes he will, plus spain is in a recession just like we are, any jobs that ARE AVAILABLE will most likely go to a fellow Spaniard before an outsider unless it was a special skill job

I cannot answer but I have a question. How do you expect to be able to get a Spain residency? On either your El Salvador or US passport you may be able to travel as tourist for up to 90 days in a 180 period to Spain. To get a residency you will need to have a work sponsor who has to justify that he is not able to fill his vacancy on the local and the European labor market. You may be able to perform illegal work although officially staying legal by staying three months on the El Salvador passport, then flying for a day to a non-Schengen country like Bulgaria, Croatia, Ireland, Romania or the United Kingdom, and re-enter Spain on the US passport to stay for another three months. This doing repeatedly would enable you to stay in Spain for a long period it would however be illegal.

If you want to work in Spain you need to get a work permit. Getting a residency card will not help, as residency cards are given out to all sorts of people. There are the occassional millionares who do not need to work for a living, yet need a residency card to stay in the country legally. There are also foreign students who need residency cards to study at a Spanish university. Foreigners (children and relatives) who are dependants of Spanish or EU citizens also need residency cards. A residency card allows you to reside in Spain, it does not necessary allow you to work. If you have college degree and speak Spanish as your native tongue you can try to apply for a skilled migrant visa from the Spanish embassy. This would include a work permit in the residency card. You should also look into getting a degree from a Spanish university (Bachelor, masters or PhD), as graduates are given work permits if they find jobs suitable to the qualifications they acquired.
