Az expatrióta irodalmon belül a nem vállalati kiküldötteknek (önerejéből külföldön elhelyezkedő; self-initated expatriates; SIE) bejáratott irodalma van a menedzsmentben, azonban a pályakezdő expatrióták sajátosságaival eddig még senki sem foglalkozott. Jelen összefoglaló cikk célja, hogy azonosítsa és elemezze azokat a publikációkat, amelyek kifejezetten erre a csoportra fókuszálnak, azaz, akik úgy döntenek, hogy külföldön kezdik meg a pályafutásukat, beleértve a munkatapasztalat nélküli vagy csekély szakmai tapasztalattal rendelkezőket. Külön hangsúlyt helyezünk a karriermotivációjuk, viselkedésük, és globális karrierhez való hozzájárulásuk megértésére. A cikk két tekintetben járul hozzá a szakirodalomhoz, egyrészt összefoglalja a témában az elmúlt évtizedekben készített kutatások lényeges következtetéseit, másrészt információval szolgál a pályakezdő önerejéből külföldön elhelyezkedő munkavállalók menedzseléséről. Ezen felül jövőbeli kutatási irányokat is kínál, rámutatva az észlelt hiányosságokra és elősegítve a levont következtetések gyakorlati alkalmazását.
