To explain the decrease in the average duration of unemployment observed in the last decade in the Brazilian labor market, we use the McCall’s job search model, in order to explain if the two important changes occurred in the Brazilian labor market conjuncture, namely, the decrease on the incidence of unemployment and the decrease on the residual wage inequality, had influence on behavior of individuals in the search of a job, reflecting on the fall of average duration of unemployment. Simulations of the average duration of unemployment according to McCall’s model showed us that the incidence of unemployment does not have influence on behavior of individuals, while the residual wage inequality has a relative importance to explain the long run trend and the observed cycles on average duration of unemployment.
