| Abstract | Empirical analysis provides no evidence that the higher wage threshold for migrants aged 30 and above keep many highly skilled migrants from working in the Netherlands. At the same time, empirical evidence shows that these highly skilled migrants stay in the Netherlands longer if the partner is employed. Increasing the number of opportunities for foreign students to gain work experience during their study does not have substantial effects on their retention rate. |
