In the sixth episode of 'The Classics Podcast Does...Careers', we welcome Sabah Hussain, Migration and Citizenship Team Leader at Rights & Security International, to discuss Odysseus' no 1 virtue, the resonance of faith, studying abroad and the weirdness of the ancient world.

Sabah studied her undergraduate degree in Ancient World Studies at University College London before an MA in Investigative Journalism at City University.

In this series, we meet guests from all walks of life, fascinating people with a connection to classics who lead fascinating lives and we discuss where studying the past can take you; what classicists bring to the workplace (and the world!); how to forge your own path; and the resonance of the ⁠#ancientworld⁠.

Share your own personal story about #classics⁠ and ⁠#careers⁠ and find us at @theclassicalpod on Instagram or Threads.
