Argentine executives and graduates shocked by President Mauricio Macri's dr...

SANTIAGO - Argentine executives and graduates shocked by President Mauricio Macri’s drubbing in elections this month have begun calling and emailing in droves in search of work in Brazil, Chile and Colombia, head hunters and visa advisers told Reuters.

“I think people feel a bit of despair,” said Nicholas Schmidt, head of executive search firm Spencer Stuart’s financial services division in Chile, who received a flood of email and phone enquiries after the primary results. Several Argentine candidates told potential recruiters that Macri, elected in 2015 on a pledge to “normalize” Latin America’s third largest economy, had been their hope for an economic turnaround after a decades-long cycle of peso weakness and inflation.

By last weekend, the phrase “the only exit is Ezeiza”, a reference to the country’s main international airport, had begun trending on Twitter in Argentina. “Argentines are extremely flexible salary wise and have a very good reputation in the region,” he said. “It’s been gradual as different people have different pain points and family commitments but this most recent news will definitely bring a huge spike.”

At least it's Argentine executives seeking jobs abroad now and not their unemployed mercenaries.

This is so sad, but so understandable.

From developed countries back to developing countries to backward countries, noble white South Americans LOL

Que saiam! Se não são nacionalistas, será melhor prós argentinos que esses corvos realmente deixem o país. E que fiquem os que se preocupam e interessam com o desenvolvimento do país e consequente bem estar do seu povo

They better not go to the USA, after the 2020 election we may follow Argentina to ruin.

I hope they are more successful in their endeavors than all the rich libtards that were leaving after HRC lost....you still here Whoopi, Cher, Babs, Jon, Chelsea, Miley, George, Sam, Spike etc etc

Anyone who expected a different result is a fool. Macri sealed his defeat when his economic policies failed and called the IMF, which isn't... popular, particularly with Argentinians.

They should go back to Italy and Spain. And the millions of jews should go to their homeland Israel.

en octubre lo damos vuelta

I hope that they don't try to come to the USA. They'll be locked up. But if they got the money things could be a lot different for them.

Now you can also make a report telling that many other people, after the primary elections, have some faith in getting a job.

that's a little sense of poope ? saying it abstractly, anyway somebody somewhere who continuously ignore the messages, could understand what i mean.

People is leaving Argentina since Macri is President, check the statistics. His presidency is awful, poverty has increased and the major debt he caught has been good for nothing

Unfortunelly looks like the next Venezuela. I hope it will not happen. The socialist cancer cant win and destroy even more this country.

That $57B IMF loan - largest IMF loan to date - just left one large debt for a country. Wonder who that was supposed to help

CHE cherniTweet tu patria te llama ... :)

Cowards.

Buenos Aires Skyline though ♥️
