- Stability – statutory regime.
- Benefit package – food assistance of R$ 1,000, health assistance, preschool, and border additional when applicable.
- Increased workforce – the Federal Government signals priority in combating organized crime and border issues, reinforcing the likelihood of additional calls.
Quick Tips for Those Competing
- Plan your study in cycles: initial focus on Portuguese, IT, and Constitutional Law (high weight for everyone); then delve into the specific blocks for your position.
- Simulate the TAF right away: history shows that about 20% of those approved in the objective test are eliminated in the physical test.
- Train the Cebraspe style: the bank demands fine reasoning in “true/false” judgments with penalties for errors – solve previous questions from PF 2021 and PRF 2023.
- Keep track of amendments: large contests often have schedule or content adjustments; register on the bank’s website to receive alerts.
