Bulgaria's National Employment Agency has launched a campaign for creating job opportunities for young Bulgarians living abroad.
According to unofficial data, Bulgarian students abroad are more than 30,000. These are mainly highly qualified professionals fluent in more than one language.
The Employment Agency connects young professionals looking to work in Bulgaria with local and international companies.
Since the launch of the campaign two weeks ago, some 100 applications have already been received on the official e-mail rabotazamen@az.government.bg.
Bulgarian business is looking to employ 12,000 specialists, despite the increase of unemployment rates in the country by 0.4% up to 12.2% in January.
