Forget it, you're being set up for a scam. You got the job offer by e-mail I presume and it wasn't a job you have already applied for. This is a common scam all over the world. So common in fact that you can't even trust job offers when you find a website for the hotel. Many of these scammers go so far as to create a false webpage that looks almost identical to the real hotel's webpage, but if you look closely you will find it has a slightly different URL, the name itself will be slightly different or the domain is different.

Sir,

Thank you for the prompt reply.

No I got the job offer through OLX advertisement and the guy is currently present in the country. He wants me to visit him in his city. Then he will get my documentation done for visit and I will go to Barcelona.

Then on VISIT he will get my permit made.

Very clearly he said that at no point there will be dealing of money between us so that I feel that its a scam and he will run with my money.
