RESUMO

This research had as a goal to comprehend how the recently graduated psychologists youths live their insertion to the labour market in the area of the Great Florianópolis - Santa Catarina state - Brasil. The participants of this research were 7 psychologists, whose the time of graduation varied from the recent graduation to two years. Five of them were women and two were men, with ages between 24 and 28 years old. The research was of qualitative nature, and the instrument for the information collection was a semi-structured interview. The technique used to treat the discoveries of this study was the content analysis. Through that analysis, three great themes were identified: the insertion process into the labour market, the feelings lived during the insertion process and the constitution of the professional identity. As of those themes, the following categories emerged: (1) the psychologists perceptions on the labour market, (2) the insertion strategies, (3) the university role; (4) low self-esteem, (5) fear, (6) anxiety, (7) anguish, (8) depression, (9) frustration; (10) the end of the nexus between them and the university, (11) the insertion as a transition for adult life; and (12) insertion as a statement of the professional identity. The confrontation of the existent expectations just after the graduation with the adversities found in the professional insertion attempts marked to the subjectivity of those new psychologists in a striking way, as they came across the contradictions in the current work world. The subjective consequences of that process for most of those people were: the disturbance of the self-esteem, anxiety, depression, a shock in the professional identity, insecurity, anguish, fear front the future, shame and guilty. They used as insertion strategies: the sending of curriculum vitae through Internet for the private companies, the participation in public concourses for vacancies in Psychology or positions that just demanded the high school, voluntary works and the extension of studies. To summarize, the professional insertion difficulties have printed in those recently graduated professionals an impact into their professional identities because they were not getting to materialize the knowledge learned during the graduation course in working as psychologists.
