This paper aims to analyze the occupational profile’s pathway in the executive power in Brazil at federal, state and municipal levels between 2003 and 2018. The amount of working contracts in the executive increased 42% in this interval, although presenting heterogeneities among federative levels and the degree of specialization of integrated servants. Previous studies have made temporal analysis on civil service to show State’s transformations in political and sociological aspects. This paper seeks to contribute to the comprehension of what the State does, the human resources available, and how it has been changing in the past years. In this regard, data from Annual Relation of Social Information, RAIS, was analyzed about major groups, and the categories that expanded and shrunk most in this period. Results suggest a process of modernization of Brazilian state that dialogues with its attributions after the 1988 Federal Constitution, in spite of remarkable differences between the federative levels.
