Abstract
Following the argument that there is a public academic paper market that indicates the profile of professionals to work in higher education, this text analyzes the content of the knowledge required in public tenders for the phenomenological and existential humanist area. Initially, it can be observed that in Brazil it is common for the humanist, phenomenological and existential perspectives of psychology and philosophy to be associated. The data collection and analysis followed the content analysis method. Twenty-four public notices were selected, of which 241 points of knowledge were extracted whose recording thematic units were organized according to six thematic axes that refer to the formative profile studied. The knowledge detected was related to: historical, epistemological and philosophical foundations; theoretical-conceptual understandings; clinical practices; activities in the health field; training for research and intervention; and the understanding of current phenomena. This formative profile is shown to be broad, plural, complex and difficult to be reached/mastered in full, considering the explanations, determinations, articulations, applications and implications of the aforementioned mentioned perspectives. Lastly, the reason for such is questioned and another possibility of research in private institutions is proposed.
