The Spoken Language Skills (Russian) assessment represents a great leap forward in assessment technology. The test evaluates a person's ability to carry on a verbal conversation with a native Russian speaker. Test takers utilize both their web browser and a phone connection to speak, read, and listen in Russian.
The assessment leverages multiple modern technologies for voice recognition, speech-to-text, natural language processing, auto-translation, and machine learning-based essay scoring and presentation analysis to evaluate the ability of a person to carry on a natural conversation in a specific language.
The specific attributes measured include:
Compulsory Oral and Aural Skills and Abilities
- Speaking Clearly
- Hearing and Understanding
- Repeating Back Clearly
- Responding Clearly

Following completion, the test produces a Test Result and Interview Guide that includes an overall score and detailed scores for each attribute. The overall score is a weighted average of each of the factors. The report also provides expert interview questions that help you probe critical or low-scoring areas, along with a guide for noting your evaluation of the test-taker's responses. Consistent use of an interview guide is an important part of gaining better candidate insights and making better staffing and selection decisions.
