Mobility <strong>and</strong><br />

relative openness<br />

of the labor<br />

market<br />

The variables used to measure the mobility <strong>and</strong> relative<br />

openness of the labor market focus not only on the<br />

number of people studying outside of their home<br />

country <strong>and</strong> their language skills, but also on a country’s<br />

tendency to hire foreign nationals to add diversity to its<br />

workforce. These characteristics along with openness to<br />

other cultures are crucial to creating <strong>and</strong> maintaining<br />

talent flow:<br />

• number of students studying overseas<br />

• number of overseas students studying in country as a<br />

% of enrollment in higher education<br />

• language skills of the labor force<br />

• hiring of foreign nationals<br />

• openness of trade (exports + imports % of GDP)<br />
