SUMMARY
If something seems to be characterizing this century that has just begun, is the phenomenon of immigration. A global phenomenon that is pervasive and affects us all, and yet we are giving partial and contradictory answers. In Spain, many foreigners currently reside studies college, obtained here or in their home countries, where the points of view to the job search are not the same as those of college English or foreigners with low qualifications. This paper reviews several reports on three aspects of the issue: (a) presence of immigrants in Spain, in general, (b) foreigners in the English educational system, and (c) foreign immigrants with university degrees obtained in their country of origin. Following the presentation of quantitative data, it will now examine the particular features which contribute to the various groups of immigrants and foreigners with a university education, the obstacles that each found and the potential benefits of face to their employment, focusing on issues such as recognition of qualifications, obtaining work and residence permits, lack of information from immigrants themselves, the rejection of immigrants by many people the host society, and lack of information and prejudices of employers and human resources managers. Finally, we suggest some possible courses of action to improve the employability of these people.
