Abstract

the bureaucratic elite recruited to lead Brazil's economic development. In order to fulfill this goal, the text presents a detailed description of the recruitment process adopted to select the staff of the Brazilian National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES). By analyzing the changes in the admission process of professionals with college degree, from 1955 to 2012, we intend to inquire how the inflections in the selection procedures and in the set of characteristics and skills that the Bank looks for when recruiting, vary according to the changes experienced by the institution itself. To do so, the article is going to present a set of events that occurred in history of the Bank that had impacts on the procedures and content required in the process of personnel selection. The study of the paradigmatic case of high-level bureaucracy, the one of the BNDES, allows the reader to enter the universe of selection contests, frequently considered an essential requirement for the creation and preservation of public service of excellence
