Does my nationality matter when applying for a job? Does it impact my chances

Normally, your country of origin should not matter while your professional skills and experience are being assessed. However, when it comes to making a hire/non-hire decision, it may impact your chances because some countries require visa sponsorship and relocation expenses.
Also, some roles require fluent English and cultural background, for example, in sales. In that case, lack of related experience may also impact your chances.
Hope this helps.

+1 to what Farmazonian said. However, there are sometimes cases when a candidate is being discriminated based on their origin or ethnicity. That is against the law in many countries and if ever get that kind of experience, I would recommend contacting HR or even law agencies ASAP.
