Study - Educated immigrants in unskilled labor

The World Bank has published a policy paper entitled "Brain Waste? Educated Immigrants in the US Labour Market." It looks at skilled employment of immigrants within the United States and how the country of origin may be a factor in the quality of the jobs obtained. Immigrants from countries that use English as a language for education and from countries that spend more money on tertiary education faired better in finding skilled employment.
