In Brazil, multinational corporations and tech companies frequently use the English term 'fresh hire' in their business vocabulary, particularly in São Paulo's corporate sector. In traditional Portuguese business environments, the term is less common, with professionals preferring 'funcionário recém-contratado' or 'novo colaborador.'
