Unemployment by choice? I think it would be viewed as an unwillingness to commit and an inability to be responsible.

For a specific answer, more information would be need regarding how long they have been unemployed, why they are unemployed and if htey are actively searching for employment.
A psychologist would see unemployment that was not voluntary as part of life,something that people go through at times in their lives for different reasons. As long as that person is looking for employment then there is nothing wrong. The issues to deal with would be the effects of being unemployed such as depression, lowered self-esteem and uncerntainty.
If the person is unemployed by choice then there is more to work on. he quesiton would be why is this person doing this? Are they 40 years old and living off mom and dad or are they a house wife with a husband that has a good paying job? The first one would be a serious issue with motivation, manipulation and laziness. The latter would be normal in our society.
So long story short, there would be more information need to really assess this person in regards to unemployment since there are many other factors to take into consideration.

a long period of unemployment brings distress and puts down self-worth. looking for a job that is fulfulling and satisfying is not always easily available and so it's one of the natural occurences in life.
the behavioral effects differ by degree from one person to another, usually dependent on how a person views "work" in relation to life.

I think a psychologist would view it objectively based on the individual.

From a Freudian standpoint of higher importance regarding the issues of employment and companionship?

a good psychologist wouldn't generalize any group of people, they learn and consider individual circumstances and feelings before forming an opinion.

If I were you, i might want to do a double major in both psychology and sociology, and then get your doctorate in psychology. there's a mess of money interior the occupation. I studied to be a psychotherapist. there's a mess of money in psychology, and there are a mess of interest opportunities.
