Your salary ranges are too low. In fact you should start with double the max as your low range.

This is why there is a mysterious shortage of 'skilled' workers in Spain.

Minimum wage low skill jobs pay more than this in the US. Heck, your workers would be better off in the rest of the EU or at least the UK.


> Minimum wage low skill jobs pay more than this in the US.

No, they don't. $7.25 * 40 * 52 = $15,080. Before taxes.

(40 hours, assuming you are lucky enough to get full-time, which is often not the case, esp. at fast food places and such. Also 52 weeks, which is more realistic since you're not likely to get paid vacation. The $7.25 is the current minium wage for the US as a whole [1], may differ per state.)

Agreed, unfortunately it's very hard to find jobs paying properly in EU right now. It's amazing what is expected of people for the money offered.


I don't think many Spaniards would feel exploited on the higher end of the bracket. Salaries in Spain are not in sync with those in SV (neither is the VC scene), and Barcelona does have a lot to offer in quality of life.

Thanks for the feedback, though, it's always useful to get a honest reaction. I'll keep it in mind.


The salary may be monthly. This is common in European job ads.


50k Euros per month? Something tells me that's not right
