"Highly skilled migrants (further referred to as HSM’s) are rising to become a dominant force in current\r\nglobal migration patterns. Not only are they of importance on a global scale for the transfer of\r\nknowledge but also to fill in gaps of human capital in destination countries. HSM’s have been found\r\nto provide economic growth and innovation to developed countries. The Netherlands, which is\r\nsuffering from an ageing population is falling behind in the global competition for these HSM’s.\r\nEconomic motives are excluded as previous studies already identify these as a core interest for HSM’s.\r\nPrevious studies also mention tendency to underestimate the ‘human face’ of migrants. This research\r\nexplores the ‘human face’ of migrants as suggested by previous research. This is done with the help\r\nof three main themes, namely social factors, life-course events, and political and institutional\r\nchallenges. To explore these themes the following research question was formed;\r\n“What motives besides economic influence HSM’s in choosing the Netherlands as a location to migrate\r\nto?”\r\nThe motives are investigated qualitatively through a series of in-depth interviews. Results show the\r\nmost influential motivational factors to be Language, Linked lives, Career progression, Migration\r\ndistance. Less influential factors include Bureaucratic challenges, Highly Skilled Migrant financial\r\nbenefits, gender, ethnicity and visa’s and permits. Additionally while not the focus of the study the\r\nCOVID-19 crisis proved to have a be major factor and bias in HSM’s past and future migration patterns."^^ . "2022" . . . . . . . "Sjoerd"^^ .
