Two-step immigration selection : recent trends in immigrant labour market outcomes / by Feng Hou, Eden Crossman and Garnett Picot.: CS11-626/2020-113E-PDF

"This article examines whether the expansion of two-step immigration selection accounted for most of the recent improvement in immigrants' initial employment rates and entry earnings. This is the third article in a series that provides a broad overview of the increasing importance of temporary foreign workers in the selection and labour market outcomes of immigrants. The first article provides an overview of the literature on the advantage and potential risks of two-step immigration selection. The second article documents the recent expansion of two-step immigration selection in Canada. This article examines (1) the association between the rising share of immigrants selected from temporary foreign workers and improved economic outcomes in the initial years after immigration; and (2) the long-term labour market outcomes of economic immigrants selected from temporary foreign workers"--Page 2.
