Bank President Comments on Public Contest
According to the BNB president, Paulo Câmara, during an interview, he stated that a new public contest for the Bank of the Northeast may be held in 2024, offering 500 positions. In a prior interview, Câmara had informed about a request for an announcement focused on increasing the number of employees at the institution.
According to the president, since the Union is the majority controller of the Bank of the Northeast, it goes through them. Thus, the presidency has to negotiate in the Federal District to open the BNB contest. However, it is necessary to proceed, since it has been a while without opening a contest.
At that time, an internal survey was ongoing with the aim of obtaining the necessary positions and vacancies.
Despite this, Paulo Câmara highlighted the possibility of the new BNB contest offering opportunities in the fields of information technology and public service. Paulo states he wants to conduct this contest this year because it takes time, but everything will depend on authorization. However, the company has been in talks with the federal government and noted that the mindset is different.
