It's quite surprising for me there is such an acute Labour/skills shortage in that particular sector, and that there are so many interviews and visa sponsorships offered/available.

On paper coastal Galicia like Vigo and A Coruna have the mildest climates in continental Spain. Mild winters and cool summers.

It is going to be hot again in southern Spain.

I am quite surprised that construction companies (most of which in Spain are nationally based and don't even have an international mobility expert in their HR department) are prepred to sponsor work permits and visas.

I wonder how much of this is great at first until they realise what's involved.

This is what seems to happen with UK employers saying "yeah sure" when employees want to work remotely from Spain, until they see what that actually implies!

In any case, even if only 50% of the offers are later made firm when reality hits, that's still great news for expats from non-EU countries.

One of the major issues for Spain at the moment regarding the housing crisis is a lack of workers in the construction area. So yes they are going to need to bring in foreign workers - however I believe that south America is the main recruiting ground
