The Spanish are renowned for both their relaxed attitude to life and their exuberant social personalities. It is common in Spain to be interrupted while speaking, which in contrast to the English way, is a sign of interest. The Spanish tend to be unhurried in their activities, and do not readily hurry for anyone else’s urgency. Siesta: There are many places that still observe the siesta, which is a long break between 2pm and 5pm in which many people sleep or return home for lunch. For restaurants and other members of the service industry the siesta, if taken, runs at a different time. Larger cities, such as Madrid and Barcelona, tend not to observe the siesta as the Spanish businessmen cannot afford to take this time off, and many workers find that a shorter lunch gives them more time to spend with their families in the evening. Politeness: Politeness in Spain does not rely on the “pleases” and “thank yous” that the English world is used to. Expect to be spoken to with short and sharp requests for either action or information. For most purposes the Spanish word for please, ‘“por favour”, is either overly formal or a sign of exasperation. Spanish shopkeepers will acknowledge one with little more than a quick “Si?” and an expectant facial expression. Gender roles: The major cities are essentially modern, but rural Spain still holds onto some of its patriarchal thinking. Staring and commenting on passing women is something of a national pastime for many group...

Because of the growing demand, Enterprises now want executives who can secure deals with local businesses and governments without the aid of a translator and even an individual to be paid-off and who understand that sitting through a three-hour dinner banquet is often a key part of the negotiating process around the world.

Opening a bank account in Barcelona is an easy process. You can either open a bank account immediately, before permits and registration is organised – in which case you will have a non-resident bank account – or wait until you are a registered resident, when you will be able to open a resident account. Even if you open a non-resident account, change this to a resident account as soon as you can to avoid high bank charges. All you need to open a resident bank account is your NIE number (numero de identificacion de extranjero or foreigners’ identification number). Many bank workers speak English, so it may be worth checking that you can communicate with at least one member of staff, or even better the manager, before choosing the bank and branch in which to open your account. Many websites of Spanish banks can also be read and navigated in English, making online banking, bill payments, transfers and even international transfers, very easy to do yourself. The following major Spanish banks have English websites: BBVA www.bbva.es Bankinter www.bankinter.com
