The Hungarian migration potential with a specialemphasis on the migration motivation of the currenthighly skilled young generation

Absztrakt

Since Hungary’s political and economic transition, its joining of the EU and the subsequent employment agreements among European countries the westwards, migration has speeded up. The high unemployment rate in the reform countries and the marketable professions and knowledge of languages has enabled qualified individuals to emigrate in the search for better jobs, salaries or prestige to the western European countries. On researching the Hungarian migrant potential it is verifiable; Hungarian employers do not put pressure on the labour market of the EU. However, in fields of some special professions there are crisis phenomena. This study examines the causes; in its particular focus are the migrant motivations of the highly skilled post crisis young generation.
