N2 - Background: There are few studies about the Indonesian nurse returnees’ career after working and living overseas. Therefore, the present study addressed the current status of their employment. Purpose: This paper explores the situation of return migration among Indonesian nurses who return to the country of origin. Methods: Descriptive study using the latest survey of Indonesian nurse returnees. Results: The career situation of Indonesian nurse returnees varies on the post-migration stage. Half of the returnees were working out of nursing areas (57.2%) at the time of the survey. Returnees predominantly work as own account worker when they get back into the labor market.

Returnee career situations were relatively similar number between nursing and non-nursing areas.
