Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast—"Immigration Focus, Part 2: Can I Ask That? Bonus Episode, With Jennifer Behm"

With regular host Ari Kwiatkowski still on her Italian honeymoon, Rosemary Enright returns to guest host episode 27 of Barclay Damon Live: Labor & Employment Podcast. It’s a follow up to an earlier conversation, helping listeners understand what is allowable in job postings, applications, and interviews, this time through an immigration lens. Jennifer Behm, a partner at Berardi Immigration Law and immigration counsel at Barclay Damon, joins Rosemary. “First things first,” says Jennifer. “An employer cannot state in a job post that US citizenship is required for employment.” To avoid claims of discrimination or even the appearance of discrimination, employers are advised to have processes and procedures in place and to treat applicants the same in regard to citizenship. Listen in for more information, including about the important I-9 form.
