Phone interviews are just as important as in-person interviews, so adequately preparing for them can influence your success. Many companies use phone calls with candidates who look good on paper to determine if those applicants are ready to move to longer, more in-depth interviews. Actually, with the right approach, phone interviews can be seen as an advantage to interviewees - all you need is super communication skills.
In this episode of The New Nomad, Allen Koski welcomes Paul Bailo, founder and CEO of Phone Interview Pro and professor at Columbia University, in sharing his expertise on why communication is important in everything. They also talked about the future of work and why companies and organizations should adapt to working remotely. So before you go from ecstatic to panicked wondering how in the hell you’re going to knock the interviewer’s socks off, tune in to this week's episode and polish your communications skills to ace the interview you have been waiting for.

A person with dual citizenship is a citizen of two countries at the same time, which has both advantages and disadvantages because it is a complex legal status. Dual citizens enjoy certain benefits, such as the ability to live and work freely in two countries, own property in both countries, and travel between the countries with relative ease. Being a citizen of two countries allows you more mobility - embracing our global world and all its opportunities.
In this episode of The New Nomad, Samantha North (owner of Digital Émigré) joins our hosts Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski as they take their audience to the complicated world of passports and visas and everything in between. They regaled their audience with stories about their experiences and shared tips on how to make the legalities of travel easier, especially after Brexit. If you are planning to go to a foreign country and maybe stay there for an extended period, tune in to this week’s episode. Surely, the golden nuggets peppered throughout the show would be a huge help.

[25:19] How to not get ripped off when you shop in a foreign country
[29:03] Having wise counsel is crucial
Samantha North, originally from the UK, has lived and worked abroad for over 10 years. In 2013 she started her freelancing career while working for a remote destination company. Even though she started out as a journalist, she decided then to focus more on web development. Both the pandemic and recent political changes (Brexit) in her passport country (UK), inspired her to launch a service, Digital Émigré, to help remote workers and freelancers emigrate to the EU and gain citizenship. Her past freelance experiences in web development, digital marketing, and journalism have been invaluable in this new venture.

It is a great sight to see that countries have done and keep on doing things to accommodate every traveler, disabled or not but ravel can be pretty tricky for some non-disabled people, especially those with disabilities as there are many barriers to travel experienced by people with a disability.
