Hi everyone,

This is my first post so please be gentle.

My girlfriend and I are wanting to live and work in Spain, preferably in Barcelona area, but we have no idea where to start. I have applied for the EU Blue Card system for us both but it seems to take a while.

Can anyone help me on what we can do?

Recruitment agencies that we can contact or email, where to look for jobs...

PLEASE!!

Best place to start is to make an appointment for you both to visit the Spanish Embassy as well; Embassy of your own birth County too! At least Spanish Embassy to be advised correctly as well, what's required and expected time frames! Wishing you success with this Endeavour!

Thank you, I have contacted them and I have a list of what I need. (Which is a lot... Hahaha) Now it is just basically getting in touch with a recruiter or something like that.

you both can post your 'job seeking - offer' here on the site
on the 'jobs'-section'
other alternative is to sign-in to 'Infojobs' summit your CV along with a cover-letter & then wait & see what's comes up..
good luck
