# Brazil Plans to Hire Over 1,300 Public Servants by 2026 Government eyes filling vacancies from national exams and evaluating new recruitment models for 2027. - **Source:** [G1 – Globo](https://g1.globo.com) - **Published:** 2026-11-12 - **Topic:** [politics](https://brifing.si/c/politics) - **Original article:** - **On Brifing:** https://brifing.si/s/ddcc8b9d-20fc-43f7-b766-008f213c169e ## Massive Public Sector Hiring The Brazilian federal government plans to call over 1,300 successful candidates from public exams by the end of 2026. These positions represent vacancies left unfilled during the first edition of the National Unified Public Exam. Officials are currently finalizing the list of remaining openings to be published by next week. ## Budgetary Constraints and Planning Minister Esther Dweck confirmed that budget allocations exist to support these new hires. The Ministry of Management is coordinating with the Federal Budget Secretariat to verify available resources for additional calls. Hiring beyond initial vacancy counts requires strict proof of funding, ensuring all new appointments align with current fiscal responsibility laws. ## Agencies Seeking New Staff Multiple federal bodies are set to receive new personnel, including the Funai, Incra, IBGE, and Inep. Other departments like the Attorney General’s Office and various ministries, including Health and Science, also have open slots. These roles include the new Technical Analyst of the Executive Branch career, which supports diverse administrative functions. ## Correcting Exam Data Inconsistencies A new notice for the second edition of the CPNU was recently published, covering over 500 vacancies. This document replaces a previous version annulled due to data inconsistencies found in three specific roles. The government maintains that all original rules and selection criteria remain unchanged for the affected candidates involved. ## Proposed 2027 Exam Model The government is exploring a new format for the 2027 National Unified Public Exam, inspired by the Enem model. Candidates would take exams for specific fields and receive a classification, allowing agencies to draw from this pool as vacancies arise. This strategy aims to significantly reduce the current eighteen-month hiring timeline. ## Legislative and Budgetary Hurdles Future recruitment cycles for 2027 depend heavily on the approval of the Annual Budget Bill by the National Congress. This legislation, submitted in late August, dictates the financial limits for personnel expenditures. Without this legislative clearance, the government cannot finalize the number of new authorizations or additional hiring procedures for next year. ## Specific Agency Hiring Outlooks Minister Dweck addressed prospects for several key agencies, noting potential 2027 exams for the INSS and Federal Highway Police. Meanwhile, the Federal Police and the National Mining Agency may call additional candidates before 2027. Environmental agencies like Ibama and ICMBio are also prioritized for immediate staff reinforcements to address ongoing operational needs. ## Strategic Workforce Management Current regulations prohibit agencies from launching new exams while valid reserve lists from previous selections exist. Consequently, the government must prioritize calling existing candidates before opening new processes. This approach ensures efficient use of human capital while managing the significant administrative shortages identified across the federal government since early 2023. ## Sources covering this story - https://g1.globo.com/trabalho-e-carreira/concursos/noticia/2026/11/12/concurso-governo-cnpu.ghtml — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
