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.
- Figure out and focus on something you learned in the classroom that you want professional practice in. Take extra time with it, if possible to refine the skill.
- Consider why you’d like to travel to Spain specifically and see if you can pull something cultural or native to Spain to connect to on a professional and personal level.
- Meet and maintain relationships both within the internship and out. Broaden your circle and perspective.
Understand the benefits
Taking the time to head to Spain and Intern there 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.
- Make great connections. Build a global network of professional contacts and grow professionally. Don’t forget to make some connections beyond your working hours!
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.
- Cultural etiquette - Familiarize yourself with Spanish workplace norms, particularly respecting hierarchy. In social settings, cheek kisses are customary—start with the right cheek among friends.

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 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.
