The article focuses on three different migratory flows: political exile (1975-1983), the first economic migration (1984-1999) and the last one (2000-2007). The National Immigrant Survey conducted in Spain in 2007 provided the statistical data. The results proved that immigrants did not improve the employment status they had before emigrating; on the contrary, they experienced downward mobility from a higher position in Argentina. In addition, we found a better employment of older migration flows, specially exiles, due to structural factors such as migration policy and the structure of the labor market and, to a lesser extent, individual factors such as educational level, sex or age of migrants. Este artículo analiza la movilidad ocupacional trasnacional de la población argentina en España, desde el último empleo en origen al primero en destino, de tres flujos migratorios con características propias: el exilio político (1975-1983), las primeras migraciones económicas (1984-1999) y las últimas de carácter masivo (2000-2007). El análisis se apoya en la explotación de la Encuesta Nacional de Inmigrantes realizada en España en 2007. Los resultados comprueban que los argentinos no mejoraron la situación laboral que tenían antes de emigrar, por el contrario, experimentaron una movilidad descendente desde una posición más alta en Argentina. Asimismo, se constata una mejor inserción laboral de los flujos migratorios más antiguos, en particular el del exilio, debido a factores de índole estructural como la política migratoria y la estructura del mercado de trabajo y, en menor medida, a factores de índole individual como el nivel educativo, el sexo o la edad de los migrantes.
