“When I arrived in Spain, the toughest impact was to find out I would not be able to work for the following 6 months. My partner and I came with our computers and our best intention to add value to European companies and it was a real shock to get that door shut. We started looking for job offers that we were prepared for, but we never got through the first phase because we didn’t have job permit.
In Spain there are many organizations that aim to help, but they don’t have the tools to help specifically in your area of expertise. One of the first things that I heard was that it was going to be impossible to find a job as a designer. All the courses we got offered were targeting jobs such as shopgirl, cleaner, butcher...
Our case worker in Red Cross introduced us to PAZ, and she said “I think this is going to work for you”. Before then, we were really lost. We didn’t even know how our profession was called in Spain. Once we started the PAZ program, everything started to make sense and the mentors were key to find opportunities. I felt this was really targeted to what I wanted and I needed. My mentor, Cristian, gave me a lot of clarity about where to go and gave me the keys about where and how to start to find a job in Spain as UX/UI.
On top of that, my mentor has introduced me to people that have worked in different kinds of companies, giving me tips and tricks about how they work and how to connect with
This was key to understand clearly what is what the companies need, and how to dmenostrate my differential value in order to succeed in the selection processes.
