Fewer and fewer Romanians are interested in a job abroad, especially now as the international context becomes increasingly uncertain. Only 6.3% already have a plan when it comes to leaving and working abroad in 2026, according to a recent survey conducted by employment platform eJobs.
Almost 28,000 applications for jobs abroad have been recorded since the beginning of the year until now, only 1% of the total applications registered in Romania. The countries that attracted the most applications were Germany, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Greece, Cyprus, the United Arab Emirates, Sweden, and France.
