Högutbildade invandrares upplevelser av sin situation på den svenska arbetsmarknaden : En kvalitativ studie om faktorer som står för högutbildade invandrares integration på den svenska arbetsmarknadenAlessa, Nouha January 2023 (has links)
According to several studies, it is difficult for highly educated immigrants to find a job that match their education. A large number of them are forced to work in low-skilled jobs to cope with their daily lives. In this study, I will examine highly educated immigrants experience of their situation in the Swedish labor market. The study aims to examine the obstacles and opportunities that highly educated immigrants face in the labor market. The study is based on internal opinions where personal experiences and reflections of different participants were analyzed. The focus of the study is how six educated immigrants describe their situation in the Swedish labor market. This paperaims to increase knowledge about highly educated immigrants' conditions, expectations, obstacles and opportunities in the Swedish labor market. The results of the interviews with the participants were analyzed using key concepts from the two sociologists Erving Goffman and Pierre Bourdieu. The results show that the lack of a valuable social network, loss of symbolic and cultural capital that the participants had in their home country, plus the various demands from the employer, which is a major focus on the Swedish language, makes it difficult for academic immigrants to find a qualified job. respond to their education. / Enligt flera studier är det svårt för högutbildade invandrare att hitta ett jobb som möter deras utbildning. Ett stort antal högutbildade invandrare tvingas arbeta i lågkvalificerade jobb för att klara av sitt dagliga liv. I den här studie kommer jag att undersöka högutbildade invandrares upplevelser av sin situation på den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Studien syftar till att undersöka de hinder och möjligheter som högutbildade invandrare står inför på arbetsmarknaden. Studien bygger på interna åsikter där personliga erfarenheter och reflektioner av olika deltagare analyseras. Studiens fokus ligger på hur sex högutbildade invandrare beskriver sin situation på den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Syftet är att fördjupa förståelsen kring faktorer som påverkar högutbildade invandrares inträde och integration på den svenska arbetsmarknaden. Resultaten av intervjuerna med deltagarna analyserades med hjälp av centrala begrepp från de två sociologerna Erving Goffman och Pierre Bourdieu. Mitt resultat visar att bristen på ett värdefullt socialt nätverk, förlust av symboliskt och kulturellt kapital som deltagarna hade i hemlandet, plus de olika kraven från arbetsgivaren som ligger stor fokus på det svenska språket gör det svårt för högutbildade invandrare att hitta ett kvalificerat jobb som bemöter deras utbildning.

Bright future ahead – an online educational and vocational training program design for foreign-trained occupational therapist in the U.S.Levin Schwartz, Neta 14 May 2021 (has links)
Foreign-trained healthcare professionals consist of a sizable and important portion of the United States healthcare workforce (Chen et al., 2013; Farkas, 2003; Lowell, 2012). Foreign-trained healthcare workers often encounter various challenges in acclimating and integrating into the American society and workforce. Even though foreign-trained occupational therapists are considered essential, and their difficulties in adjusting are well-recognized, there are very limited bridging and training programs designated solely for this population that incorporate a comprehensive approach and meets their unique needs. Therefore, this doctoral project aimed to understand the barriers to integrating into the local workforce and proposed ways for supporting these highly- educated and experienced professionals in their new country.
The resulting solution is A Bright Future Ahead, an online educational and vocational program designed for new foreign occupational therapists. The program’s content and structure are based on existing programs for adjacent health professionals while customizing the program’s layout and content to target occupational therapists. A Bright Future Ahead suggests a multi-layered solution that requires an enormous investment in the program’s development and implementation; however, this program can be expanded in the future to other professions that share similar professional credentialing processes and experience akin barriers.
