I’m Mistelle. I’ve moved abroad three times, I don’t have a magic second passport, and I’m not here to sell you a fantasy life on a cobblestone street. We’re talking the stuff that actually decides whether you can move: visas, budgets, timelines, jobs, kids, healthcare, paperwork, and the emotional chaos that shows up the second you try to do this with a partner (or a bank account that’s already tired). If you’ve been doom-googling, panic-saving Reels, and ending every research session with “well… that was horrifying,” you’re in the right place. Because moving abroad isn’t a vibe. It’s a project. And I’m here to help you build a plan that works in your real life.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-21T08:17:41.333328+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/how-to-move-abroad-your-guide-to-start-living-abroad-7095003"},"episode":{"title":"I Had to Interview for My Own Job When I Transferred Countries.

And interview for it. Because Switzerland considered it a new position — and before my company could give it to me, they had to prove to Swiss authorities that no local candidate could do what I do. For my own job. That I was already doing. This week I'm talking about the legal reality of international hiring that almost nobody explains clearly — why employers in most European countries are required to demonstrate they couldn't find a local candidate before they can hire you, what that process actually looks like, and why this is the real reason you keep getting passed over and it has nothing to do with your qualifications. Also: what actually works when the playing field isn't level.","meta_description":"When I transferred my job from Vienna to Zurich within the same company, I still had to apply for it.
