Goiás Government Confirms FCC For Sefaz GO Contest

The upcoming Sefaz GO contest will offer 300 auditor positions with significant salaries and structured examinations.

The contest for the Secretaria da Economia do Estado de Goiás (Sefaz GO) has officially defined its organizing bank. On Tuesday, April 1, 2025, the Government of Goiás confirmed that the Fundação Carlos Chagas (FCC) will oversee the upcoming contest for the position of Auditor Fiscal da Receita Estadual. This announcement marks a significant step forward in the preparation for the contest, which is eagerly anticipated by many prospective candidates.

The contract with the FCC is expected to be formalized shortly, paving the way for the publication of the edital, which is scheduled to occur by May 2025. This timeline aligns with the preliminary schedule released by the Secretaria da Economia in December 2024, indicating that the licitation process for selecting the organizing bank would take place between December and March 2025. According to the government, the edital will detail the requirements, structure, and other essential information about the contest.

The Sefaz GO contest will offer a total of 300 vacancies for the Auditor Fiscal position, with 200 positions available for immediate filling and an additional 100 set aside for a reserve register. Candidates interested in applying for this prestigious role must possess a complete higher education degree in any field, as stipulated by the Ministry of Education. The initial remuneration for the successful candidates will be R$ 27,247.26, plus an indemnification fee of R$ 3,600, bringing the total compensation package to over R$ 30,000.

As for the structure of the examinations, the contest will consist of objective tests and an evaluation of titles.
