Full time job (no experience)

brewski · 13-01-2009, 23:30

Hey guys, I currently live in Helsinki, Finland. Im a mix of Japanese, Canadian and Welsh and I speak English and decent Finnish. I love Barcelona as a city and in the last 2 years I've visited the city 5 times! Im currently in high school, and I want to take a year and a bit off and get a job working in Barcelona. I have no work experience except for a 2 week job training in a clothing store. I realize that there are bars and whatnot that english speakers work at. But I still have 7 months to go until I turn 18! Are there any possibilities?

Hey brewski Barcelona is a great place, so just like you there are literally hundreds of students and young people that come here and many of them also seeking work.

It's not easy finding a job, especially in the current economic climate. If you are just looking to earn money then yes your best bet is bar work or promotion (for clubs, bars or restaurants)...

Also check out what I told another one of our members, Hanka...
