| Abstract | The geographical dimension covered by the international migration research literature is usually concerned with a host-/home-country focus. However, little attention has been paid to the function of the region as a “clearing house” through which companies in a recruitment process can identify and screen potential candidates that have already settled the country. This paper investigates the recruitment channels used by companies for recruiting highly skilled internationals to the Sunnhordland region in Western Norway. The empirical evidence, combining secondary data and company case study data, has shown that both regional and national recruitment channels play important roles in the search for highly skilled migrants that originally come from abroad. In particular, the data show the important roles of the Norwegian higher education institutions as well as regional networks in recruitment matters. |
