SAMU Contest Opens High School Positions in ES, With Salary Close to R$ 2 Thousand, 30-hour Workweek, Online Applications, and Exams Scheduled for February 2026.
The Mobile Emergency Care Service (SAMU 192) has opened a new public contest aimed at high school candidates, creating a concrete opportunity for those seeking entry into the public health sector with defined work hours, structured selection process, and formal hiring in Espírito Santo.
The announcement provides for a starting salary close to R$ 2 thousand, shift work, and selection organized through a partnership between the State Health Department (Sesa) and the Santa Casa de Misericórdia, responsible for managing the service in the state. The process stands out for not requiring technical or higher education, broadening the reach among candidates seeking their first stable public sector position.

The contest is for the position of Medical Regulation Assistant Telephone Operator (TARM), a strategic function within the SAMU Central, responsible for the initial telephone response in emergency situations.

To compete, candidates must meet objective and accessible requirements: completed high school and basic computer training. There is no requirement for prior experience in the health sector, which makes the announcement especially attractive for those looking to change fields or enter public service for the first time.
Salary, Work Hours, and Hiring Regime
The base salary provided in the announcement is R$ 1,783.68, with a 30-hour weekly workload, distributed in 6-hour shifts on a 4×2 schedule. Shifts may occur both during the day and at night, depending on the operational needs of the service.
With the addition of benefits provided in the contract, the monthly amount can reach around R$ 2 thousand, which positions the SAMU contest as a competitive option among high school selections in the state public sector.
Hiring will be carried out under the Consolidation of Labor Laws (CLT), guaranteeing formal labor rights such as vacation, 13th salary, and FGTS, in addition to predictable working hours — an important differential compared to informal or temporary arrangements without guarantees.
Steps in the SAMU Public Contest in Espírito Santo
The selection process is temporary, but structured in six stages, all with eliminatory and classificatory character. The goal is to evaluate not only theoretical knowledge but also behavioral profile and practical ability for care in critical situations.
The candidate will need to achieve a minimum of 60% efficiency to advance in the stages. The steps include a curriculum assessment, theoretical exam, document analysis with profile interview, practical exam focused on typing and telephone assistance, psychological evaluation, and technical interview.
This format reinforces the functional character of the position, prioritizing speed, clarity in communication, and emotional stability — essential competencies for emergency medical assistance.
Applications Open: Deadlines and How to Participate
Applications are made exclusively online on the official SAMU ES website. The deadline remains open until January 25, 2026.
During the application process, the candidate must carefully fill out the electronic form and attach all documentation required in the announcement, a step that often eliminates candidates who do not correctly follow the formal guidelines of the selection process.
Date and Location of the SAMU Contest Exams
The theoretical exam is scheduled for February 3, 2026, starting at 8 a.m., and will take place at the SAMU 192 Central, located on Rodovia do Contorno (BR-101), in Carapina, in the municipality of Serra.
The other in-person stages of the contest will also occur at the same location, following the schedule set by the organizing committee. The announcement advises candidates to closely monitor official updates to avoid missing deadlines.
Why the SAMU Contest is Attention-Grabbing in 2026
In addition to a competitive salary and reduced work hours, the SAMU contest stands out for offering a reserve list, initially valid for six months, which can be extended depending on the service demand.
For many candidates, it represents a strategic entry point into the public health sector, allowing them to gain experience, contractual stability, and the possibility of staying on according to the operational needs of the emergency system.
In a scenario of high competition for public positions, announcements for high school level with clear criteria and defined compensation tend to attract thousands of applicants, especially among those seeking professional security without needing to invest years in higher education.
