Resumo: | Internships and trainee programs are two of the most important ways of entering the labor market. In selection processes for such opportunities, the job simulations are largely adopted by companies and human resources consultancies. Considering that this technique is a very subjective one, it’s possible for the candidates to make use of impression management. This study intends to analyze if business students resort to self-presentation strategies and tactics when they participate in this kind of selection. Additionally, it tries to identify if, according to their vision, the other competitors and the selecting companies use this resource. The empirical part of this study, that followed the literature review, consisted of a qualitative research based in a questionnaire answered by business students from two universities of Rio de Janeiro. The data treatment utilized was the content analysis. As central conclusions it is suggested that the impression management is not only used by those who answered but also by the organizations. Furthermore, there is evidence that the job simulation can be seen as an unfair process, that favors those who can act well. |

Job Simulation and Impression Management: A study about self-presentation in the selection of interns and traineesDinâmicas de grupo e gerenciamento de impressões: estudo sobre auto-apresentação na seleção de estagiários e traineesInternships and trainee programs are two of the most important ways of entering the labor market.

Em processos seletivos para tais vagas, as dinâmicas de grupo são amplamente adotadas por empresas e consultorias de Recursos Humanos. Por constituir uma técnica vivencial, as dinâmicas desvelam a possibilidade de utilização de Gerenciamento de Impressões (GI) por parte dos candidatos. O presente estudo tem por objetivo identificar se estudantes de Administração recorrem a estratégias e táticas de GI ao participar desse tipo de seleção. A pesquisa buscou investigar também se, na visão dos candidatos, seus concorrentes e os próprios selecionadores valem-se do recurso. A parte empírica do estudo, que se seguiu a uma revisão de literatura com foco nos temas pertinentes, comportou uma pesquisa de base qualitativa conduzida a partir de um questionário respondido por estudantes matriculados em duas universidades do Rio de Janeiro. O tratamento dos dados seguiu o protocolo da análise de conteúdo. Como conclusão, sugere-se haver evidências do uso de GI em dinâmicas de grupo, não somente por parte dos candidatos, como também por parte das empresas contratantes. Há indícios de que a dinâmica pode ser percebida como processo injusto, que favorece candidatos mais afeitos a comportamentos teatralizados.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina2011-04-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPesquisa teórico-empírica; Pesquisa descritiva; Revisão bibliográfica apoiada por estudo de campo de base qualitativaapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2011v13n29p24310.5007/2175-8077.2011v13n29p243Revista de Ciências da Administração; v.13, n.29, janeiro/abril de 2011; 243-2752175-80771516-3865reponame:Revista de Ciências da Administraçãoinstname:Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)instacron:UFSCporhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/article/view/2175-8077.2011v13n29p243/17503Hallak, Rodrigo Telles PiresCarvalho, José Luis Felicioinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2022-11-21T14:12:52Zoai:periodicos.ufsc.br:article/13793Revistahttp://www.periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/admPUBhttps://periodicos.ufsc.br/index.php/adm/oairevista@cse.ufsc.br||mfpcris@gmail.com||rca.cse@contato.ufsc.br2175-80771516-3865opendoar:2022-11-21T14:12:52Revista de Ciências da Administração - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC)false |
