| Abstract | |
How are chosen the students for corporate internship programs by big multinational companies? This research looks into this questions by interviewing the principal actors - manager engineers and human resources professionals - and observing a complete process of student hiring. The author shows that the decisions to hire or not specific students are made through an evaluation of the candidates capacities and that those capacities are inferred from signals as: attending a prestigious university, having traveled abroad, knowing how to handle a group and how to properly talk to superiors and colleagues. This conclusions help to better understand how the socialization processes prepare youth to the job market, and how those processes articulate to the production of social inequality in the Brazilian society.
