Reality Check on Unemployment

12 years ago
Hi Everyone! My friend is moving to Barcelona from USA this upcoming fall in hopes of finding a job as a chef. He understands the unemployment rate but I fear that he hasn't grasped the extremity of it. He has a Croatian passport but Croatia is in a transitory phase right now, which means they will still need a work visa after 3 months. My friend claims that a lot of jobs in the restaurant industry is done via black market anyway. I did recently read that the unemployment rate dropped a little but wonder if it has made quite an effect to those unemployed. Is the situation in Barcelona just as bad as other parts of Spain or is it better? Also, can people get caught easily for working illegally?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
