Today's world of work is changing and requires enthusiastic creative workers with entrepreneurship and the spirit to face the demands of the professional context successfully. The objective of the study was to evaluate the deficiencies related to the management of human talent through socio-emotional competencies, stress management and psychological well-being for quality with university students in terminal training. The methodology used was based on a quantitative, non-experimental, descriptive and cross-sectional method. The sample was made up of 67 last year university students, under a convenience sampling. The instruments used were a questionnaire with questions related to sociodemographic variables, the Ryff Well-being Scale, the Meta-Knowledge Trait Scale (TMMS-24) and the SISCO Inventory of academic stress. The results obtained indicate that 31.34% of the subjects do not have the skills to adequately identify and express their emotions; 47.76% perceive that they do not understand their emotional state. The most frequent stressors identified by the students have been, in the first place, the overload of tasks (82%) and later the evaluations (63%). The most identified psychological symptoms have been anxiety, anguish and despair, since they have been reported by 64.5% of the sample. In reference to psychological well-being, 84.7% affirm that they do not identify having physical or mental health. There is a significant correlation (sig. 0.03) between the variable degree of psychological well-being with emotional attention (sig. 0.03) and emotional regulation (sig. 0.04).In conclusion, the results showed low levels of socio-emotional skills, inadequate styles of coping with stress and lack of resources to obtain psychological well-being, as well as a relationship between the degree of psychological well-being and socio-emotional skills.
