La vacante indica el requisito valorable.

La vacante usually means the vacancy, the job opening, or the vacant position.

In job-related Spanish, vacante often refers to the open role itself. In practice, though, this sentence can sound like the job posting is being treated as the thing that gives the information.

So depending on context, a learner might mentally understand it as either:

• the vacancy / opening
• or, more loosely, the job ad / posting

That is one reason the sentence may feel slightly unusual.

Because vacante is a feminine noun here: la vacante.

Articles in Spanish must agree with the noun’s gender:

• la vacante
• la oferta
• la posición

Even if the job could be for any gender, the noun vacante itself is grammatically feminine.

Because the subject is singular: la vacante.

So the verb must also be third-person singular:

• La vacante indica = The vacancy indicates
• Las vacantes indican = The vacancies indicate

This is standard subject-verb agreement.

Indica is the present simple of indicar.

Here it is the third-person singular form:

• yo indico
• tú indicas
• él / ella / usted indica

In this sentence, la vacante is treated like it, so Spanish uses indica.

Here, indicar means something like:

• to indicate
• to state
• to specify
• to mention

In job-posting language, English would often prefer state or specify rather than the more literal indicate.

El requisito valorable means a desirable requirement, preferred qualification, or something that is valued but not strictly required.

Breakdown:

• el requisito = the requirement
• valorable = worth valuing / considered positively / desirable

In job ads, valorable usually means not essential, but it will count in your favour.

No. They are quite different.

• valorable = desirable, a plus, nice to have
• obligatorio = obligatory, mandatory
• imprescindible = essential, absolutely necessary
• requerido = required

So requisito valorable suggests something that helps your application but is not necessarily mandatory.

In Spanish, most adjectives normally come after the noun, especially when they classify or describe the type of thing.

So:

• requisito valorable

means roughly a requirement that is considered desirable / valued.

This placement sounds more normal than putting the adjective before the noun.

Not usually in this context.

Even though they look similar, valorable in job-ad Spanish does not normally mean valuable in the everyday English sense.

In recruitment language, a better translation is:

• desirable
• preferred
• considered an asset
• a plus

So be careful with the false-friend effect.

Using el suggests a specific requirement is being referred to.

• el requisito valorable = the desirable requirement
• un requisito valorable = a desirable requirement

So el makes it sound like there is a particular requirement already identified in context.

Yes, in real job ads, the plural is often more natural:

• los requisitos
• los requisitos valorables

The singular el requisito valorable suggests there is just one such desirable requirement being referred to.

So the sentence is grammatically fine, but in many real-world contexts, the plural might be more likely.

It is understandable, but it sounds a bit stiff and slightly unusual.

A native speaker might more naturally say something like:

• En la vacante se indica el requisito valorable.
• La oferta indica el requisito valorable.
• En la oferta se indican los requisitos valorables.

Why? Because la vacante is the open position itself, while the thing that literally states information is more naturally the job ad or offer.

So the original sentence is not wrong, but it may feel a little unnatural depending on context.

In job contexts:

• vacante = the vacant position / opening
• oferta or oferta de trabajo = the job offer / job posting / advertisement

If you mean the text where requirements are written, oferta or oferta de trabajo is often more natural than vacante.

That is why La oferta indica... may sound more idiomatic than La vacante indica....

Yes, and that often sounds more natural in formal or administrative Spanish.

For example:

• En la vacante se indica el requisito valorable.
• Se indica el requisito valorable en la oferta.

This se structure is very common in Spanish because it avoids assigning the action directly to something like la vacante.

It is understandable and fits HR language, especially in Spain, but native job-ad language often prefers other patterns too, such as:

• Se valorará experiencia en...
• Se valorará positivamente...
• Requisitos valorables: ...

So valorable is real and used, but in many ads you may more often see the verb phrase se valorará.

Not exactly, but they can overlap.

• requisito valorable = a requirement or qualification that is positively considered
• mérito = a merit, achievement, or advantageous credential

In formal selection processes, mérito can sound more institutional or official. Requisito valorable sounds more directly connected to job requirements.

You could, but the nuance changes slightly.

• indica = states, specifies, indicates
• muestra = shows, displays

In a job ad context, indica or especifica often sounds more precise than muestra.

So muestra is possible, but indica fits formal written information better.

A very literal translation is:

• The vacancy indicates the desirable requirement.

But more natural English would often be something like:

• The job posting states the preferred qualification.
• The posting specifies the desirable requirement.
• The vacancy lists a preferred qualification.

The most natural English version depends on the wider context.
