How attractive is Slovenia for foreign talent?
In the modern world, the fight for talent has an increasingly competitive dimension which is why Slovenia and consequently Slovenia's economy, can gain a lot by facilitating the arrival of key talent from abroad. By being more efficient and predictable than now, Slovenia could become more competitive as a country. Talented and competent workers represent for all companies and particularly for high-tech development companies, a competitive advantage, and the key to Slovenia's development is high value-added jobs and investment in human capital. Therefore, at AmCham Slovenia, we strive for a more flexible labour market where we will focus on flexible forms of work that coincide with development and new professions. We propose more efficient regulation and expediency in obtaining work permits and temporary residence permits for foreigners in Slovenia, the establishment of better conditions, and the promotion of life quality for foreigners who want to come to study or work in Slovenia. In addition, improving and upgrading school programs and offering programs in English and other foreign languages would be helpful.
