Roles that commonly ask for it
Korean is hired for support serving Korean customers, with gaming and consumer electronics leading the demand, and for roles at Korean companies operating abroad.
As with Japanese, register is part of the job rather than polish on top of it. Honorific speech is how a support agent shows respect to a customer, and a level that tells you whether someone can sustain it is worth more than a self-description.
The same structure, timings and rubric for everyone, in Korean. The buttons and timers around the questions follow the candidate's own language, so nobody is scored on operating the page.
Two everyday questions, one longer topic, then a short passage read aloud, which isolates pronunciation from the content of an answer. Each question is read aloud in Korean, and the pale stretch before each answer is think time.
Total timed: 5 minutes.A short everyday message, then a longer structured piece scored for organisation as well as accuracy. Pasting is switched off for every candidate.
Total timed: 15 minutes.Ten scores, five per skill, and the reasoning behind the level, so a result you disagree with can be checked rather than trusted.
One scale across every language: a B2 in Korean means what a B2 in English means.
How the scoring worksSpeaking & Writing · Korean
Held the thread of an argument across a long answer and recovered naturally after losing a word. Vocabulary was appropriate to a professional register throughout.
Hesitation before complex clauses slowed the pace. Article use was inconsistent in the written responses, though it never obscured the meaning.
