Test candidates on core German (Upper Intermediate/B2) Hiring Test topics

Grammar: Grammar refers to the rules and principles that govern the structure and use of language. In the context of this test, measuring grammar skills is crucial for assessing a candidate's ability to accurately and effectively communicate in German, as it encompasses syntax, sentence formation, verb conjugation, and word order.

Vocabulary: Vocabulary deals with the knowledge and understanding of words and their meanings. Evaluating a candidate's vocabulary skills in this test is important to gauge their lexical range and accuracy in German. It enables the assessment of their ability to express themselves fluently, choose appropriate words, and understand the nuances of the language.

Reading Comprehension: Reading comprehension assesses a candidate's ability to understand written text in German. This skill is imperative to evaluate a candidate's overall language proficiency, as it requires the interpretation and comprehension of various types of texts, including diverse topics, styles, and genres.

Listening Comprehension: Listening comprehension evaluates a candidate's ability to comprehend spoken German language. This skill is essential as it involves understanding different audio sources, such as conversations, lectures, and interviews, and being able to extract and comprehend relevant information to answer questions accurately.

Writing: Writing assesses a candidate's ability to produce coherent and well-structured written texts in German. This skill is vital to evaluate a candidate's command over grammar, vocabulary, and written expression, while also assessing their ability to convey ideas and arguments effectively through written communication.

Speaking: Speaking evaluates a candidate's ability to express themselves verbally in German. This skill is important to measure as it assesses a candidate's fluency, pronunciation, grammar usage, and ability to engage in conversations, presentations, and discussions in a clear and coherent manner.

Idioms and Expressions: Idioms and expressions refer to the specialized colloquial phrases and language usage that are unique to a specific language. This skill is significant to measure as it demonstrates a candidate's familiarity with the nuances of the German language and their ability to incorporate idiomatic expressions appropriately, showcasing a deeper understanding and fluency in the language.

Cultural Knowledge: Cultural knowledge pertains to a candidate's understanding of the customs, traditions, and cultural aspects associated with the German-speaking countries. This skill is essential to measure as it reflects a candidate's awareness and sensitivity to cultural differences, allowing them to effectively communicate and navigate social situations while demonstrating respect for cultural diversity.

Have questions about the German (Upper Intermediate/B2) Hiring Test?

How does pricing work?

You can check out our pricing plans.

Can I customize the test?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up within 48 hours based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test. You can also customize a test by uploading your own questions.

Can I combine multiple skills into one test?

Yes, absolutely. Custom assessments are set up based on your job description, and will include questions on all must-have skills you specify. Here's a quick guide on how you can request a custom test.

What roles can I use the German (Upper Intermediate/B2) Assessment Test for?

Here are few roles for which we recommend this test:

  • Analyst
  • Tour Guide
  • Translator
  • Language Teacher
  • Foreign Exchange Trader
  • Journalist
Can I see a sample test, or do you have a free trial?

Yes!

The free trial includes one sample technical test (Java/ JavaScript) and one sample aptitude test that you will find in your dashboard when you sign up. You can use it to review the quality of questions and the candidate experience of giving a test on Adaface.

You can preview any of the 500+ tests and see the sample questions to decide if it would be a good fit for your requirements.

How do I interpret test scores?

The primary thing to keep in mind is that an assessment is an elimination tool, not a selection tool. A skills assessment is optimized to help you eliminate candidates who are not technically qualified for the role, it is not optimized to help you find the best candidate for the role. So the ideal way to use an assessment is to decide a threshold score (typically 55%, we help you benchmark) and invite all candidates who score above the threshold for the next rounds of interview.

I'm a candidate. Can I try a practice test?

No. Unfortunately, we do not support practice tests at the moment. However, you can use our sample questions for practice.
