This paper is on the early labor market experiences of second-generation immigrants in the Netherlands. With respect to employment rates we find that there are some differences across ethnic groups. However, conditional on having a job there is hardly any difference in wages and other job characteristics between second-generation immigrants and native Dutch of the same age group.
