Barriers and Enablers of Immigrant Career Experiences and Outcomes
Abstract
Perspectives surrounding the barriers and enablers of immigrant career experiences and outcomes have been a long time coming. Discussions on these are more crucial than ever before, considering the multitudinous numbers of immigrants spread out globally today, as compared to 20-30 years ago. Several global case studies and divergent examples, drawn from true life trajectories are showcased, to shed pertinent insights into this discourse. Concurrently, the chapter aims to substantiate the barriers immigrants face, hence deterring their career success, due to reasons that include illegal immigration status, criminal offenses, cultural and language barriers, mental illness, poorly orchestrated plans, discrimination, diversity and homophilic concerns, among others. Conversely, enablers immigrants face leading to successful careers include education, networks, government policies, appropriate immigration status, family support, and support agencies, among others. Knowledge of these should enhance empowered future decision making and an elevator for immigrants to excel.
