Resumen
ESPINOZA DIAZ, Óscar; GONZALEZ, Luis Eduardo; CASTILLO, Dante y SANDOVAL, Luis. Visión de titulados de la carrera de Psicología que acceden por primera vez al mercado laboral en Chile. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2019, vol.41, n.163, pp.89-107. ISSN 0185-2698.
Analyzes the factors that influence the process of labor insertion among graduates who earned Psychology degrees from Chilean universities with various levels of selectiveness. Based on in-depth interviews, the paper reveals a context of saturation in the professional field, and finds that institutional prestige and quality of professional training are determining aspects in the labor insertion process. This situation primarily affects graduates of the less selective universities, who have encountered greater obstacles in finding work. This reinforces the hypothesis that it is not enough to introduce devices to improve equity in access to higher education; the quality of labor insertion must also be considered.
