Abstract

Research Background: Unemployment has been a major inhibitor of growth and development in Nigeria and it has been a perpetual problem that has proven insurmountable despite various governmental administration interventions and commercial policies to encourage the influx of multinational corporations and foreign direct investment. As such, this study examined the effect of requisite skill availability (RSA) on multinational Corporations locational strategy (LS) as there has always been skill mismatch inhibiting employability.
