Abstract

More and more citizens decide to leave Hungary and try to get a job abroad. Among them more and more are young and skilled. This situation is very disadvantageous for the country due to Hungary’s aging population. In addition the country would not only need to keep their people in Hungary but also to attract skilled workers from abroad. This paper aims to investigate the reason for this high number of emigrants, why they decided to leave, which countries they prefer to live in and which part of Hungary they are from and how long they plan to stay abroad.
