Paper made by an employment adviser of the Regional Employment Office in Tarnów, a psychologist by profession, shows common attitudes of unemployed graduates. Despair, hopelessness and idleness are main barriers to take up a job. These are psychological consequences of being unemployed, because a job constitutes certain value in itself for everybody. The authoress emphasizes the need of being active and getting to know yourself, your strengths and rules of effective job-hunting, which guarantee achieving professional success by everyone, and especially by a graduate. For young people, their own activity, ability to use professional information and various forms of help offered by the local Employment Office, become a great chance for them on a local labour market. Passiveness, torpidity and lying the responsibility for being unemployed with institutions or with situation of socio-economic transfer occurring in the country become their threat.

Detailed analysis of an unemployment phenomena occurring among young people shows an importance of the problem and necessity to take up appropriate actions.
