Summary/Abstract: Our study tackles upon the influence that the English as a second language knowledge has upon the integration of immigrants to the UK in general, and of Romanian immigrants in particular. Actually, this fact is valid for all immigrants to the UK. The main stress of the integration aspects is on the economic one, namely what chances Romanian immigrants have to get well-paid, qualified jobs there.Furthermore, the great merit of our study is that it draws attention upon the connection between English and integration and employment of which most Romanian immigrants to the UK are highly aware. The theoretical part of our paper is supported by facts and examples that, in some cases, depict professionally successful Romanians.
