The job market for public sector positions in Tocantins is gaining momentum, offering numerous opportunities across various educational levels. With salaries ranging from R$ 1,100 to R$ 12,800, candidates seeking stability and promising careers can find compelling options.
At the Instituto Federal do Tocantins (IFTO), two recent job openings have attracted significant attention. The first edital offers three positions for substitute teachers located in Gurupi, covering areas such as Letters/Libras, Mathematics, and Veterinary Science/Zootecnia. The second edital targets Palmas, with two vacancies available for professionals teaching Civil Engineering and Letters/Portuguese-English. The salary for these roles is set at R$ 4,580.57.
Prospective candidates for both positions must submit their applications by December 30 for the Gurupi roles and by January 3, 2025, for those based in Palmas. Importantly, the application process for both selections is free of charge. Candidates should prepare for two selection stages: the analysis of qualifications and performance on teaching demonstrations, which will function as both eliminatory and classificatory measures.
Another opportunity arises with the selection of tutors for distance learning, presented under the Programa Sistema Aberta do Brasil (UAB). This initiative seeks to establish a reserve list for fourteen courses, requiring applicants to possess higher education credentials along with at least one year of proven teaching experience at either basic or higher education levels. Applications must also be submitted for free via the IFTO platform.
The selection process for these tutoring positions includes the screening of resumes followed by face-to-face interviews scheduled between January 20 to January 22 at venues designated by the institution.
Also noteworthy is the Embrapa (Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation), which is launching its own significant recruitment drive. With 1,027 available positions, 719 are open to the general public, 103 for individuals with disabilities, and 205 for individuals classified as black or brown (PPPs).
The positions cover entry-level roles requiring only elementary education all the way up to advanced research positions needing postgraduate qualifications. Initial salaries can reach as high as R$ 12,800. The selected organization for administering the upcoming public selection process is Cebraspe, known for its reliability and professionalism.
The application window for Embrapa will open from 10:00 AM on December 16 and will continue until 6:00 PM on January 7. Among the diverse positions offered at Embrapa's unit focusing on Fishing and Aquaculture situated in Palmas are numerous research roles within the fields of Agricultural Sciences, including subareas such as the fertility and chemistry of soil, plant breeding, and aquaculture management.
Specific titles included are: Researchers specializing in Agriculture Sciences (including areas such as animal genetics and aquaculture sanitation), data analysts focusing on food science, and technicians experienced in safety and health within workplaces, as well as numerous laboratory-related roles.
The evaluations for these positions are slated to occur on March 23, 2025, with results expected to be published by April 22, 2025. This timeline allows candidates adequate preparation time for their assessments.
