It is possible that you are considering the option of studying an opposition in order to apply for a public employment position. It is true that it is a very attractive option, especially if you are unemployed and do not know what to do with your life. Study to get a job for life, with a fixed salary that helps you to be able to make plans for the future without being afraid of what will happen, to feel safe and have the same job every day of your life.
Sounds palatable to many, right? But you may also not feel very sure about where to go in this difficult decision. If you are a person who wants to oppose to have a public job but you do not know which opposition can go better with you, today I want to help you clarify those doubts that come to you with some tips that will make you see things more clearly.
There are many options and many jobs that you can choose to be able to present yourself to the oppositions. You will have to know what type of job you want, the requirements that they ask of you and above all, know if you have the studies that require you to be able to aspire to the job. In addition, running for an opposition will always be a good option if it really is what you want to do with your life. But what opposition to choose that suits you? Do not miss these tips.
What studies do you have?
You will have to look for an opposition that fits with your current previous studies, in the case that you want to prepare an opposition that requires additional studies, you will first have to take them to be able to aspire to that public employment position. If you currently have a degree or diploma, it is better that you aspire to exams for grades A1 or A2. I advise you not to present yourself to an opposition of less category because it is easier to get it, think that the less demanding an agenda is, there will be more people to try to get that job, and also the salary will also be lower. If you have gotten a degree it is because you really like it, then, better opponent in relation to your studies!
Find out about the calls
It is important that before choosing an opposition you do a little research to find out different data that will make a difference to you. For example, you can search for data to know how often they get the call or the number of places that they usually take out to contest (and the number of applicants who appear). In this way you can have a little orientation of the difficulty of the opposition.
Keep in mind that the big calls do not mean that you have a greater opportunity to pass and have the job you want for life. In fact this is quite the opposite, because the more places there are, the more applicants will be presented thinking that as there are more places, the greater the probability, but the more applicants, the probability drops drastically. Although I also tell you that if it is your specialty, you don't already have it ... so go for it! Although it seems like a lottery, you never know.
Take into account your current life and your personal circumstances
Choosing an opposition to study is not something that can be achieved overnight. You have to be very clear about your current situation because if right now you are a single mother of two or three children and you do not have time during the day and at night almost or even to sleep, it is clear that studying an opposition right now would not be a priority for you. This example that I just put can be exactly like any other, by this I mean that you have to think about your current circumstances.
It is not the same that you have all the time in the world to study (money to survive, you live with your parents, you have family support, you have at least 2 or 3 years to dedicate yourself exclusively to preparing yourself, etc.) than the example that you I have commented or that you have to work and study at the same time.
If you still want to study an opposition but you are aware that you do not have much time, then you will have to put aside the most demanding competitions because you would need a much greater dedication and if you have responsibilities in addition to studying the stress level would be too high.
However don't be afraid of difficult agendas either and less if you can plan and you are a person with perseverance and you can also get help from preparers, because you can also pass.
