How to Intern Abroad in Spain

Prepare for an Internship

Set goals

If you want to get more out of your internship in Spain, consider setting some goals! Don’t worry if yours looks different than anyone else's—they’re meant for you. Here are a few basics to get the ideas going.

  • Professional development focus. Figure out and focus on something you learned in the classroom that you want to take extra time with, or if possible, refine.
  • Consider why you’d like to travel to Spain. See if you can pull something cultural or native to Spain to connect to on a professional and personal level.
  • Broaden your circle and perspective. Meet and maintain relationships both within the internship and outside.

Understand the benefits

Taking the time to go and intern in Spain provides plenty of advantages wherever you’re placed. The basic takeaways are:

  • Growth professionally and personally. Gain valuable international work and life experience throughout Spain.
  • Cultural insights every day. Immerse yourself in Spanish culture and enhance your global perspective in a professional and personal setting.
  • Pick up the language. Improve your Spanish language proficiency at any given point throughout the day.

Things to know

As you gear up for your adventure in Spain, here are a few key things to keep in mind before starting your internship:

  • Visa requirements. Ensure you understand and comply with Spanish visa regulations, as they vary depending on the length and type of internship. Research the specific requirements for your situation.
  • Accommodation and living expenses. Housing options depend on your internship type. If not provided, explore affordable options, as Spain is generally cheaper than the U.S. Budgeting ahead is key.
  • Language skills. Basic Spanish proficiency enhances your experience and shows respect to locals. Learning the essentials will help with daily interactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

To get an internship in Spain, students can explore online platforms, leverage social media, contact Spanish companies directly, or consult their university career center for placements. These pathways help you find professional roles and gain global experience.

Students or graduates outside of the EU, EEA, or EFTA need a visa to intern in Spain. They can apply for either a Student Visa or an Authorization of Residence for professional internships. Contact the Spanish Consulate for the requirements.

Some internships in Spain are paid, albeit paying only a few hundred euros monthly. The good news is that some unpaid internships come with inclusions like transportation or accommodation, depending on the company.

An NIE is required for paid internships in Spain, allowing EU and non-EU students to land a placement. Without it, they can’t obtain a Social Security code, which is necessary to receive a salary.

This was the best experience of my life. I had the opportunity to immerse myself in Argentine culture, meet many new people, eat amazing food, and learn so much at my internship working with promoting diversity and inclusion. Since day one, our coordinator, Brenda, was super communicative and very helpful throughout the whole trip. This was such a unique experience, and I will carry it with me forever!
