Resumo

Tradicionalmente, a experiência de trabalho internacional é decorrente da expatriação pela empresa, entretanto, muitos executivos buscam empregos em outros países por iniciativa própria, trata-se da Experiência Internacional Auto Iniciada (EIA). Este artigo explora as motivações dos franceses que buscam a EIA no Brasil A metodologia utilizada foi qualitativa por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas até a saturação o que resultou em 7 entrevistas com franceses em EIA no Brasil. Os resultados obtidos permitiram agrupar os EIAs entrevistados nas categorias de motivação apontadas na literatura. Foi possível entender a influência da família nas decisões, a relevância da proximidade cultural e a atratividade da economia brasileira. O grupo estudado foi atraído ao Brasil essencialmente em função de oportunidades econômicas e pela simpatia pela cultura brasileira. O artigo contribui com a literatura e a prática de gestão de pessoas em ambientes multiculturais ao identificar fatores de atração de executivos qualificados para o mercado de trabalho brasileiro e ao abordar um tema pouco explorado na literatura nacional.
