diploma graduates without year 12 education (persons who obtained a certificate or a diploma but did not complete year 12); diploma graduates after completing year 12 (persons who obtained a certificate or a diploma after having completed year 12); and university graduates (persons whose highest education was either a undergraduate or postgraduate degree, or a graduate diploma certificate, after having completed year 12). Individuals are also classified into eight experience groups based on the number of years that have elapsed since the person completed school. We assume that the age of entry into the labour market is: 17 for a typical high school dropout; 19 for a typical highschool graduate as well as for a typical diploma graduate without year 12 education; 21 for a diploma graduate after completing year 12; and 23 for a typical university graduate after completing year 12. The work experience is then given by the age of the individual minus the age at which the individual entered the labour market. We restrict our analysis to people who have between 1 and 40 years of experience and aggregate the data into eight experience groups with fiveyear experience intervals such as 1 to 5 years of experience, 6 to 10 years of experience, and so on. The individual data is aggregated into different educationexperience For each of these cells, the share of immigrants in the population is given by: where Mijt is the number of immigrants in cell (i, j, t), and Nijt is the number of Australia born individuals in cell (i, j, t). We estimate the following specification: (1) where: yijt is the mean value of a particular labour market outcome for Australiaborn workers in cell (i, j, t); si is a vector of dummy variables for education groups (i=1 to 5); xj is a vector of variables for experience groups (j=1 to 8); is vector of dummy variables for time (5 time periods for the SIH data and 3 time periods for the matched HILDA / census data); is a normally distributed random error.
