Applicants with qualifications obtained abroad must prove that they are in possession of the corresponding validation or credential that accredits, where applicable, the homologation of the degree. This requirement will not apply to applicants who have obtained recognition of their professional qualification, in the field of regulated professions, under the provisions of European Union Law.

These requirements must be met both at the time of the end of the application submission period and at the time of taking possession or formalizing the contract.

The hired candidate will be subject to the general regime of incompatibilities established in Law 53/1984, of December 26, and complementary provisions.

Selection process

The selection procedure will be a merit-based competition related to the duties of the position and complemented by a personal interview.

Once the deadline for submitting applications has expired, the Foundation will have a period of 10 calendar days to review the documentation submitted and may request rectification from the applicant, granting a non-extendable period of 2 business days for the candidate to reply.

After reception of the revised documentation of all the candidates, the Selection Committee, within a period of 7 working days, will proceed to carry out the merit assessment, in accordance with the scale established in the section Specific Requirements. The Committee will prepare the corresponding Minutes with the provisional scale of the candidates, stating the score obtained in descending order from highest to lowest score and indicating the candidates who move on to the next phase, which will be published on the WEBSITES of the Foundation and INIBIC.

The excluded candidates will have a period of two (2) working days, from the day after the publication of the resolution, to be able to amend, if applicable, the defect that motivated their exclusion. The acceptance or rejection of the requests for amendments will be implicit in the resolution publishing the definitive list of admitted and excluded candidates.

Being included on the list of admitted persons will not prejudge whether the applicants are recognized as having the requirements required to participate in the selection process. In the case, that the documentation that they must present after passing the selection process demonstrates that they do not have any of the requirements, the applicants will lose all rights that may arise from their participation.

The Committee may conduct an interview with the candidate, in person or online, to review and confirm the aspects required to carry out the scoring. The maximum score in this phase will be ninety (90) points and a minimum of seventy (70) points will be required in the scoring phase to move to the personal interview phase.

The candidates who pass to this second phase will conduct a personal interview to assess the degree of suitability of the applicants, which will be conducted by expert personnel appointed by the Management of the Foundation.

In this phase, aspects related to the candidate's professional experience,



knowledge and soft skills will be assessed.

The maximum score obtained in the interview will be 10 points.

The order of priority of the candidates who pass the selection process will be based on the sum of the scores obtained in the merit assessment phases and in the personal interview phase. It will not be possible to complete the selection process with a number of candidates greater than the number of vacancies announced.

The Selection Committee will send the Final Report to the Foundation Management, which will announce the process results on the Foundation and INIBIC’s websites with anonymised data. This will include the list with the provisional overall score of the candidates, with the score obtained expressed in descending order from highest to lowest score.

Any ties in points that may occur will be resolved in the following order:

Firstly, the tie-breaker will be the gender underrepresented in the professional group for which the candidate is applying.

Secondly, the tie-breaker will be in favour of the candidate with a recognised degree of disability equal to or greater than 33%.

Thirdly, the criterion will be the highest score in the personal interview.

Once the candidate has been selected and the relevant documentation has been submitted, the contract for this vacancy will be formalised.

If the selected candidate does not submit the documentation within the established period, or expressly renounces the contract, the next candidate will be automatically selected in order of priority on the list.
