Abstract

The job market is increasingly competitive, which leads professionals to seek more qualification, since organizations demand increasingly specific skills for selection of candidates for job openings. Through this work, the objective is to survey and analyze the skills required in job openings in the Amizade Route and AMARP region in Santa Catarina. To this end, the Amizade Route and AMARP region in Santa Catarina is presented; vacancies are characterized and the skills required for business administrators are raised; finally, a diagnosis of the business administrator's employability is made. The nature of the research is qualitative, exploratory and descriptive. It used a documentary source and primary data. The universe was the job vacancies offered to business administrators in the cities that make up the Amizade Route and AMARP region, with a sample of 133 advertisements located and analyzed. The results show that, in most cases, skills are established (in their different models) as a requirement to fill the identified vacancies. Requirements that are attitudes are mixed with these skills, that is, it is concluded that there is no clarity about the distinction between skill and attitude. It is also observed that there are companies that ignore skills as requirements for hiring. It is concluded that organizations, in general, are adapting to the new phase of employability and changing their paradigms, placing a greater emphasis on behavioral competencies.
