According to reports of a study on the international labour market, 70-80% of citizens want to move from their country.

Without giving the causes of this trend, research shows that by 2014-2018, the percentage of Albanians who want to leave has dropped compared to previous polls but still remains in alarming numbers, Oranews reports.

Compared to Albania, other Balkan countries result in having a lower level of citizens' desire to work abroad or currently working abroad.

“The Boston Consulting Group” and the international recruiting company “The Network” have conducted one of the most comprehensive surveys regarding the work preference titled: “to handle global talents 20188x5>.

366,000 people who are a labour force in 197 countries of the world have been asked to realise this survey.

Albania ranks with the same numbers as Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Mexico, Japan, and so on.
