Post Characteristics of Recent Migrants, Australia, Nov 2010
on: June 2, 2011, 22:01

An Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) report issued on 24 May 2011 showed that 81% of recent migrants and temporary residents from the main English-speaking countries were in employment in November 2010.

This leaves 19% not in employment, either by choice, or by circumstances.

The definition of recent is "Recent migrants are defined as people who were born overseas, and arrived in Australia after 2000 and have permanent Australian resident status."

About 10% of recent migrants who have had a job in Australia had their first job arranged prior to arrival in Australia.

43% spent three months or less looking for their first job.

The most common reason reported by those experiencing difficulty in finding their first job was a lack of Australian work experiences or references (64% of those having difficulty gave this reason).

Characteristics of Recent Migrants, November 2010 (cat. no. 6250.0).
