description Self-initiated expatriates (SIE) are a sub-group of immigrant workforce in the study of international migration. They comprise of professionals, who on their own, initiated the migration process without depending on any organization.

Previous studies on SIE have focused on career management and personal orientation of individuals and the studies were fragmented.
