Studying abroad benefits employability, but not universally

Students travelling to low income or socialist countries for internships gain fewer management competencies than students who travel to other parts of the world. New research by PhD candidate Erik van ‘t Klooster of Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM) reveals that going abroad makes you more employable. But this is not universally beneficial; relative youth, ‘staying in’ instead of exploring, or too short a time abroad can also reduce the benefits.
