Hi there,

It's great to hear that you are searching for work opportunities during your year abroad in Spain!

I'd recommend contacting your host university, as they often have the best knowledge of this. They may have previous examples of where students have been employed before, which could be useful for your search. Many students I went abroad with ended up working in the university dining hall. Your home university may also be helpful in providing guidance for this.

I'd also be wary of certain rules/regulations you have to follow. During my time abroad in the USA, I had to apply, interview, and submit paperwork once I got an offer and receive confirmation from the organization I went abroad with before I accepted. Make sure to double check all of this!

I hope this helps,
