Although a significant portion of African migrants resides in Europe and contribute significantly to European economies, they are underrepresented in social sciences research. As a result, our understanding of the antecedents of their career success is limited. To address this gap, we aim to perform a systematic literature review of the antecedents of the career success of African migrants in Europe. We build upon the Career Resources Framework to organize and synthesize our findings drawn from 22 peer-reviewed articles published between 2011 and 2019 selected following the PRISMA method. Results revealed education, the host country's language skills, belonging to diverse social networks, stronger cultural competencies, and higher career clarity are positively associated with career success. However, African migrants experience the most severe labor market discrimination in terms of employment and career prospects in Europe which dramatically calls for further scholarly attention. We discuss the findings and outline future research agenda.

尽管很大一部分非洲移民居住在欧洲并为欧洲经济做出了重大贡献，但他们在社会科学研究中的代表性不足。因此，我们对他们事业成功的前因的了解是有限的。为了解决这一差距，我们的目标是对欧洲非洲移民事业成功的前因进行系统的文献回顾。我们以职业资源为基础组织和综合我们的研究结果的框架，该研究结果来自 2011 年至 2019 年间发表的 22 篇同行评议文章，这些文章是按照 PRISMA 方法选择的。结果显示，教育、东道国的语言技能、属于不同的社交网络、更强的文化能力和更高的职业清晰度与职业成功呈正相关。然而，非洲移民在欧洲的就业和职业前景方面经历了最严重的劳动力市场歧视，这极大地需要进一步的学术关注。我们讨论了研究结果并概述了未来的研究议程。
