to scientific works performed or published in areas related to the
proposed work plan (corresponding to 35% of the evaluation); B. The

assess the candidate's motivation and interest in the activities to be
carried out (10% of the assessment), as well as the command of English
(5% of the assessment). If deemed necessary, and with a view to
evaluation at this stage of the competition, the jury may request
references from the candidate to the academic individuals mentioned in
article 4, paragraph 1, al. d). In the second phase of the competition,
the jury will select for an interview (corresponding to 10% of the total
evaluation) up to 5 candidates from those who, in the first phase,
obtained the highest classification - in any event, only evaluations
higher than 60%. In the event of a tie, the final decision will be the
responsibility of the president of the jury. Once the selection phases
have been completed, the jury will draw up, within a maximum period of 5
working days, a minute showing the final decision, the ordered list of
approved candidates, with the respective final classification, as well
as a summary description of the recruitment process, evaluation and
selection undertaken. The jury's final decision, as referred to in
paragraph 5 of the previous article, expresses the interested parties
are notified so that, in the exercise of the right of prior hearing
