Abstract: Many works, both theoretical and empirical, have recently considered the role of social relations in the labor market. A number of them points out that job access through contacts sometimes considerably varies according to the foreign origin of workers. Differences in the use and the efficacy of social relations according to workers? origin result from the variation of individual?s socio-demographic characteristics of each group, from the behavior of employers and employees transmitting job offers as well as from some contextual factors. We propose a literature review on the main findings of these recent researches. When it is possible, we illustrate our comments through the original French Trajectories and Origins (2008) dataset.
