Trajetória de carreira dos servidores assistentes em administração da UFRN

Abstract

The objective of this study is to understand the career perception of the administrative technical servants of the administrative assistant position of UFRN and thus contribute to the expansion of the work aimed at understanding the career trajectory from the perspective of the individual. Regarding the methodology, the research is characterized by its exploratory and qualitative nature, having as data collection technique, carried out by a semi structured interview, with six administrative assistants of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte - UFRN, at probationary phase, stable and close to retirement. For the analysis of the results, the content analysis technique was used, listing four main categories: two early career, two career development, two daily perception and next steps. The results showed that the greatest attractive to become a UFRN's administrative assistant is stability, but most of these people do not have any academic background linked to their duties. In the perception of the interviewees, the UFRN presents good working conditions, a pleasant organizational climate, offers clear tools of salary progression and professional training courses. However, it has a big problem: the difficulty of growing professionally in the position. This study suggests that the fact that none of the interviewed servers wish to remain in the career can be directly linked to a shortage of professional growth opportunities.
