# Proofreading (US English) Assessment

## Description
The Proofreading (US English) assessment is a skills and knowledge test designed to evaluate a candidate's or employee's ability to identify and correct errors in written US English content. It focuses specifically on proofreading competencies, falling under the broader category of Language Skills, and is intended for use in pre-hire selection, employee development, and promotion selection decisions. The assessment measures practical proofreading skills through multiple correct answer questions, ensuring a comprehensive evaluation of a test-taker's ability to detect errors in text. To maintain the integrity of results and enhance predictive performance, questions are drawn from a large pool to minimize cheating, and one or more questions are subject to time limits.
