- 4 Nov 2014 2:00 AM
Some 55% of Hungarians surveyed by recruitment agency profession.hu said they would like to live abroad but only 21% said they were actively seeking employment outside Hungary. Profession.hu was the Hungarian partner in a global survey dubbed Decoding Global Talent prepared by Boston Consulting Group and The Network by interviewing 200,000 people.
The Hungarian survey has involved 5,144 respondents and it was nonrepresentative. Despite the high proportion of respondents who would like to move abroad, as many as 62% of the people said they felt motivated in their current job.
The top choices for Hungarians who wish to work abroad are London, where nearly a quarter of the respondents would like to live, followed by Munich and Berlin.
The top ten also included New York in fifth place and Sydney in tenth. Some 21% of the respondents said they would consider working abroad and another 41% said they would be open to any possibility but were not actively seeking one.
Fully 17% said they were regularly checking work opportunities abroad and 21% said they had applied for jobs abroad.
