Frequently Asked Questions
(FAQ)

Why Test Spanish Speakers?

Even though your Spanish-speaking staff might be able to communicate in both languages, it does not guarantee that a person has the specific ability to provide services at a professional level, translate information, or interpret in particular settings. Moreover, just because someone speaks a language at a native level does not mean they know specific industry terminology such as medical, legal, or financial.

When should I test my employees?

Ideally, all individuals offering services in a language other than English should be tested during the hiring process. Hiring costs are high, and you will reduce rehiring costs by hiring the right person the first time. Additionally, you should test your staff regularly to ensure their language proficiency has increased or stays at your preferred quality. 

I don’t need to hire or test many people as my business is small, do you offer packages for small businesses?

Absolutely! We understand that every business is different and has unique needs. You can hire us to be part of your HR team on a regular basis or as one time need.

Who should I test?

Ideally, every person who is providing services in Spanish for your clients should be tested for proficiency levels. This ensures that your clients receive quality services at a professional level and using appropriate terminology. This reduces communication errors, increases your brand’s loyalty, and improves client satisfaction. This applies to all languages, not just Spanish.
