potentialupcoming INSS job opportunity could offer approximately 9,000 positions, with a majority allocated for mid-level technical professionals.
The National Institute of Social Security (INSS) is preparing for a significant event in the federal sphere, with the potential for one of the largest contests in recent years. The organisation is seeking authorisation for nearly 9,000 vacancies, including 7,000 for technicians and 1,500 for analysts.
If authorised in 2025, the edict for INSS technicians is expected to be published in the first half of 2026. However, the exact timeline for the publication of the new edict for the position of social security technician at the intermediate level remains uncertain.
Historically, large volumes of vacancies for technicians and the national distribution of positions have favoured the realisation of a specific contest for INSS. The contest may not follow the format of the National Unified Contest (CNU), with a distinct schedule likely to be announced separately after official preparation steps.
The social security technician position is a crucial role within INSS, responsible for dealing with the public, performing process analyses, and ensuring benefits are granted quickly and securely. This role requires only a high school diploma.
In the past, the contest for INSS technicians has included two sections: Basic Knowledge (50 questions) and Specific Knowledge (70 questions). To be approved, a candidate needed to reach 10 points in Basic Knowledge, 21 points in Specific, and at least 36 points in total. The objective test in the last INSS contest for social security technicians had 120 multiple-choice questions, covering topics such as social security, social security benefits, proper and general regimes, INSS legislation, job attributes, Portuguese Language, Ethics in Public Service, Basic Knowledge of Constitutional and Administrative Law, Logical Reasoning, Informatics, and Specific Knowledge, including social security.
The absence of new social security technicians has an immediate impact on response time and the quality of service. With the possibility of a new contest for the position of social security technician, at the intermediate level, gaining strength again, many are eagerly awaiting the official announcement.
The INSS is dependent on the Ministry of Public Management and Innovation (MPI) authorisation to proceed with the new concourse. It is recommended that those interested in the position check the official social security or public employment websites responsible for the intermediate-level social security technician recruitment for announcements or contact them directly for the most accurate and current information.
The significant event in the federal sphere, as prepared by the INSS, involves a large contest that may include vacancies for technicians and analysts.
Given the past contests for INSS technicians, the expected new contest for the position of social security technician at the intermediate level could potentially follow a specific format, focusing on topics such as social security, Portuguese Language, Ethics in Public Service, and more.
