Answer honestly
Rate each statement, then choose what you would do
There are no right answers on the statements, so think of your usual pattern, not your best day. In the situations, pick what you would really do, not what sounds best.
Which of these describes you best?
Communication shows up differently at each stage, so your report adjusts the advice and the examples to match.
It appears at the top of your result and in your PDF report. It stays on your device.
What is scored
Five areas this communication skills assessment covers
Interviews and workplaces often test communication as several separate things. These five areas show up in interviews, group discussions, emails and day-to-day work.
Speaking clearly
Saying one clear point at a time
High score: You organise your point before you speak and people usually understand you the first time.
Low score: You ramble, start before you know your point, or find others often ask you to repeat or explain.
Writing
Emails, messages and short documents
High score: Your messages are short, clear and easy to act on, with the request or point near the top.
Low score: Your messages run long, bury the request, or need follow-up questions before anyone can act.
Feedback and disagreement
Giving and receiving honest input
High score: You can hear criticism without getting defensive and can disagree politely and clearly.
Low score: You avoid disagreeing, take criticism personally, or let small issues grow because you do not raise them.
Presenting and confidence
Speaking to a group or in an interview
High score: You stay fairly calm in front of others and can hold a group's attention for a few minutes.
Low score: Speaking to a group or in an interview makes you freeze, rush or avoid it altogether.
How to use your communication scores
Why five scores matter more than one
A single communication score hides what you can actually work on. Listening, speaking, writing, handling feedback and presenting are practised in different ways, and many people are clearly stronger in two or three of them.
Look at the gap between your highest and lowest area. If the gap is big, practice in the lowest area is the quickest way to improve your overall result.
Where communication shows up in careers
Interviews test speaking and listening. Most office work depends on written messages. Team roles depend on feedback and disagreement, and leadership or client roles depend on presenting. Roles in sales, teaching, HR, content, consulting and management lean heavily on all five, and nearly every skilled role needs at least writing and listening.
Communication can be practised in any language and at any age, so it is a sensible skill to work on early in a career or course.
How to read statements about unwanted habits
Some statements describe a habit you may want to drop, such as interrupting or avoiding speaking in a group. For these, agreeing lowers your score. Answer them as honestly as the others, because the report uses them to find where practice is needed.
In the situation questions, pick what you would really do on an ordinary day, not what you think is expected. A truthful answer gives a plan that fits you.
Self-rating has limits
People tend to rate themselves differently from how others see them. After you read your report, ask two people you work or study with to rate you on the same five areas and compare. Differences are the most useful part.
Limits to keep in mind
- This is a self-rating tool. It shows how you describe your own habits, not how others experience your communication.
- It does not measure English fluency, accent, grammar or vocabulary, and it is not an employer or language test.
- It does not predict interview results, selection or salary.
Common questions
Before you take the test
What does this communication skills assessment measure?
It measures five areas from your own ratings: listening, speaking clearly, writing, giving and receiving feedback, and presenting. You get a score for each, an overall score and a two-week practice plan for your lowest area.
What is a good score on this test?
There is no pass mark. Scores are based only on your own answers, so use them to compare your five areas with each other and to choose what to practise first. Retake it after a few weeks to see whether your own scores have moved.
How is the score worked out?
Each answer is converted into points for its area, and the area scores are combined into an overall score. For statements that describe an unwanted habit, such as interrupting, agreeing gives fewer points. Nothing is compared with other people.
Is this a writing skills assessment too?
Writing is one of the five areas, covering emails, messages and short documents. It does not grade grammar or vocabulary. It checks the habits that make written messages clear and easy to act on.
Is this the same as a spoken English test?
No. Communication here means how clearly and effectively you listen, speak, write and deal with feedback in any language. It is not a test of English fluency, accent or grammar.
Can students use it, or is it only for working people?
Both can use it. The situations are everyday ones, such as class discussions, group projects, emails, interviews and teamwork, and some questions change with the stage you choose.
How can I improve my lowest score?
The report gives three specific practices for your lowest area. Practise for two weeks, then retake the assessment to see if the score moves. Asking two people for their view on the same area is also useful.
How can I improve my communication skills for interviews?
Practise out loud, not only in your head. Prepare a 30-second introduction and two short stories from your projects or work, say them to a friend who asks follow-up questions, and follow the two-week plan for your lowest area. Listening, writing and handling feedback count in interviews too, not only speaking.
Is it free?
Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up and the result can be downloaded as a PDF.
