Processes of resilience and psychosocial mediators in unemployment situations: Women’s competences - The term job loss is used to describe a transition that takes place in individuals’ life altering their personal balance. Decrease in self-efficacy and self-esteem, reduction of psychosocial competences and destructuring of time represent the main psychological outcomes of unemployment.

Data collected by interview has showed that competencies develop according to the following phases: acknowledgment of the loss, reaction to the traumatic event, abandonment of the old attachments, finding of new meanings, investment on new energies.
