The Brazilian Army Opened a Selection Process for Secondary Technical Level with Positions Without Competitive Exams or Written Tests. Know How to Register and What Areas Are Available.

The Brazilian Army announced the opening of a new simplified selection process for candidates with secondary technical level, offering an attractive alternative for those seeking positions without competitive exams or written tests. The opportunities are part of the Voluntary Military Service (SMV) and are intended for the position of Temporary Technical Sergeant. Unlike traditional competitions, the process does not require knowledge tests. The selection will be carried out through a curriculum analysis, health examinations, and physical tests, making the process more accessible to a broader audience.

Positions in the Brazilian Army Are for Temporary Roles in Rio Grande do Sul

All available positions are part of the 3rd Military Region, responsible for Army units in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The selected individuals will work as temporary military personnel, with an initial contract of 12 months, which can be renewed for up to eight consecutive years, according to performance and institutional criteria.

This is an excellent opportunity for technicians in various areas to join the Armed Forces without the need for traditional public competitions, broadening their professional prospects with temporary stability, competitive remuneration, and military benefits.

Who Can Participate in the Army Selection Process

To compete for the positions of Temporary Technical Sergeant, candidates must meet the following mandatory requirements:

  • Be between 19 and 40 years old by December 31 of the year of incorporation
  • Minimum height of 1.60 meters for men and 1.55 meters for women
  • Completed secondary technical education, with a diploma recognized by the MEC
  • Be up to date with civil and military obligations (men)

Additionally, the candidate must demonstrate physical fitness and health conditions compatible with military service. The analysis of school documents, resumes, and professional certificates constitutes the initial phase of the selection.

Selection Process Without Exam: Stages and Evaluation

Unlike conventional exams, the Army selection process is based on a curriculum screening, followed by health examinations and physical tests. Here’s how each stage works:

Document and Resume Analysis
Candidates must prove the required technical education, and present transcripts, certificates, and other documents requested in the announcement.

Health Inspection
A thorough medical evaluation to verify the physical and mental fitness of the candidate for temporary military service.

Physical Fitness Test (TAF)
Exercises such as running, push-ups, sit-ups, and other practical tests that vary according to the candidate’s gender and age.

    There is no objective test, essay test, or writing assignment. This makes the process much more straightforward and quick, especially for those seeking immediate entry into the job market.

    What Is the Voluntary Military Service?

    The Voluntary Military Service (SMV) is a mode of temporary incorporation in the Armed Forces for Brazilian citizens who wish to serve in the military for a determined time, with the possibility of annual renewal. The initial contract is valid for 12 months and can be extended up to a maximum of 8 consecutive years.

    During this period, temporary military personnel have access to the military career structure, including:

    • Remuneration corresponding to the rank
    • Vacation, 13th salary, and medical-hospital assistance
    • Internal training and capacity building
    • The possibility of working in operational, administrative, or educational units

    It is a gateway to real military experience, positively impacting resumes and the potential to propel professional careers even after leaving temporary service.

    What Are the Benefits of Being a Temporary Soldier?

    In addition to stability during the contract period, those working as Temporary Technical Sergeants in the Brazilian Army have access to a series of benefits provided by military law, such as:

    • Monthly fixed salary corresponding to the 3rd sergeant rank
    • Medical and dental assistance in the health units of the Force
    • Access to subsidized lodging and meals
    • Paid vacation with extra
    • Transportation allowance and provided uniform
    • Participation in internal missions and technical training

    Although the link does not allow for functional advancement or permanent positioning, serving in the Army can open doors for new military and civil competitions in the future, in addition to representing significant experience on one’s professional resume.

    Who Should Consider Participating in This Selection?

    The Army selection process is an excellent alternative for:

    • Recently graduated technicians seeking their first professional experience
    • Professionals looking for re-employment in the market with temporary stability
    • Individuals wishing to experience a military career without traditional public competitions
    • Those interested in working in the public sector with a fixed salary and benefits

    The absence of theoretical tests and the evaluation based on resumes and physical exams make the process less bureaucratic and more direct for technical professionals.
