Episode 5. You're Perfect - But We Can't Sponsor You

Welcome back! Today we're tackling a topic that's relevant to many of you listeners: why landing a job as an expat feels ten times harder than it does for citizens. Spoiler alert — it IS harder, but not for the reasons you might think. Some of us have a story where a recruiter told us: "You're a perfect candidate for this position, but we can't sponsor you," while others secured a sponsored position, only to realise going through the visa requirements that the salary was insufficient for the application. Almost every expat has faced obstacles when trying to balance job offers, visa requirements, and salary expectations. In this episode, we're going to share our experiences over our extensive journey as expats. Tune in to find out more about what has changed recently in this area and how to navigate it and achieve your goals in a new country.
