How would I go about getting a job for about 6 weeks in the winter in Granada, Spain?

I'm afraid finding a job for six weeks is rather difficult, if not impossible, especially during wintertime. (Unless you tried a ski resort!)
May I suggest something else..
If you studied in Granada ask at the university offices if you could do a stay, perhaps seminar type thing, through them or even at the univesity itself. It may not be much of a salary, but possibly could cover expenses.

My daughter did this several years ago at Malaga University during summer break. She and her fiancÃ© both did a two month research assistance job working out of the Facultad de BiologÃa at the university in Malaga...
They were only paid local traveling expenses, which covered their gas fees and lunches, but since they were living at home with us, it wasn't too bad.
We asked at the faculty that corresponded to the studies she was doing. They gave us a bit of a runaround at first, but it finally worked out well. (And it looked great on their curriculum afterwards!).Granada might have something similar to offer you.
If you don't find anything through the University of Granada, try other universities... Malaga, Madrid, AlcalÃ¡ de Henares (near Madrid) , Salamanca, Bilbao, Barcelona or Valencia.
There are many splendid universities in Spain, and although Granada is a beautiful little town, you might find it easier to get something in a larger city. And all of Spain is worth visiting, so no matter where you end up, there will be things worth seeing. And you can practice your spanish.

I don't know where you are located at, but for traveling from the U.S. check out flying via London . Then from London look up EASYJET...they are the most economical flights to the rest of europe ... and they have some really cheap flights to Spain.

try the embassies (spanish in the US and american in Madrid) for more information to start with. The embassies usually have information on job offers and even scholarship facilities...
go to the following website for the addresses:
