With the analysis of over 3,000 notices of faculty civil service entrance examinations from 63 federal universities, our main objective was to problematize the implementation terms of Law n.o 12.990 / 2014, which reserves 20% of federal civil service examination vacancies for black applicants. A central conclusion of our research is that there is no uniformity among universities as to how to interpret the requirement of more than two vacancies per notice in order to ensure the reservation. In this scenario, the percentage allocated to black people in the analyzed notices over a period of three and a half years, totaling over 15,000 vacancies, is less than 5%. This reality seems to be contrary to the objectives of Law n.o 12,990 / 2014 and contradicts Federal Government and Judiciary organs' manifestations that the percentage of 20% for black people be followed, including in faculty civil service entrance examinations.
