122: Can I Get a Job Abroad If I Only Speak English? [replay]
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Here's the truth: you absolutely can move to a country where English is not the first language — and yes, you can get a job abroad if you only speak English. The real question isn’t if it’s possible. It’s where and how.
In this episode, we break down:
- The European countries where English-only professionals have the best chances (Netherlands, Germany, Scandinavia, Ireland)
- Which industries are most open to English speakers (tech, multinational corporations, startups, finance, consulting)
- The role of remote work and how it changes everything
- Where the local language is still essential (France, Italy, Spain, parts of Central Europe)
- Tourism, hospitality, and teaching English as entry points
- Practical strategies to increase your odds of getting hired
You’ll also learn why English might be enough to start — but learning the local language can dramatically expand your long-term options.
If you’ve been holding back because you’re “not fluent enough,” this episode will help you think more strategically about your move.
Because sometimes the language barrier isn’t the biggest obstacle — your assumptions are.
