How we design questions

Test candidates on core Norwegian Proficiency Hiring Test topics

Norwegian Grammar: Norwegian grammar encompasses the structural rules governing the composition of clauses, phrases, and words in the Norwegian language. It includes aspects such as verb conjugation, noun declension, and sentence structure. Proficiency in Norwegian grammar is essential for constructing coherent and grammatically correct sentences, enabling effective communication in both written and spoken forms.

Norwegian Vocabulary: Norwegian vocabulary refers to the set of words and phrases that make up the Norwegian language. It includes both commonly used terms and specialized terminology across various fields. A robust vocabulary is crucial for expressing ideas precisely and understanding nuanced communication in Norwegian.

Reading Comprehension in Norwegian: This skill involves the ability to understand and interpret written Norwegian texts. It encompasses grasping main ideas, identifying supporting details, and drawing inferences from written material. Strong reading comprehension skills are vital for accessing Norwegian literature, news, and other written content.

Listening Comprehension in Norwegian: Listening comprehension in Norwegian is the ability to understand spoken Norwegian in various contexts. This includes recognizing words, interpreting tone, and comprehending overall messages in conversations, speeches, or media. It's a fundamental skill for engaging in real-time communication with native Norwegian speakers.

Norwegian Writing Skills: Norwegian writing skills involve the ability to express thoughts and ideas clearly and coherently in written Norwegian. This encompasses proper use of grammar, vocabulary, and idiomatic expressions, as well as adhering to Norwegian writing conventions. Proficient writing skills are essential for academic, professional, and personal communication in Norwegian.

Norwegian Speaking Skills: Speaking skills in Norwegian refer to the ability to orally communicate thoughts, opinions, and information in the language. This includes proper pronunciation, fluency, and the capacity to engage in conversations on various topics. Effective speaking skills are crucial for real-world interactions in Norwegian-speaking environments.

Norwegian Pronunciation: Norwegian pronunciation involves the correct articulation of Norwegian sounds, words, and sentences. It includes mastery of Norwegian phonemes, stress patterns, and intonation. Accurate pronunciation is key to being understood clearly and avoiding misunderstandings in spoken Norwegian.

Norwegian Idiomatic Expressions: Idiomatic expressions are phrases or sayings in Norwegian that have meanings different from their literal interpretations. Understanding and using these expressions correctly demonstrates a deeper grasp of the language and culture. Familiarity with idioms enhances natural and native-like communication in Norwegian.

Norwegian Culture and Traditions: This aspect covers knowledge of Norwegian customs, social norms, history, and cultural practices. Understanding Norwegian culture is integral to effective communication and integration in Norwegian society. It provides context for language use and helps avoid cultural misunderstandings.

Formal and Informal Norwegian: This skill involves the ability to distinguish between and appropriately use formal and informal language in Norwegian. It includes understanding when to use different levels of politeness and formality in various social and professional contexts. Mastery of this skill is crucial for navigating diverse communication situations in Norwegian.

Norwegian Sentence Structure: Norwegian sentence structure refers to the arrangement of words and phrases to create meaningful sentences in Norwegian. It includes understanding word order, clause construction, and how to form different types of sentences (declarative, interrogative, etc.). Proper sentence structure is fundamental for clear and grammatically correct expression in Norwegian.

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.

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.

Does every candidate get the same questions?

Yes, it makes it much easier for you to compare candidates. Options for MCQ questions and the order of questions are randomized. We have anti-cheating/ proctoring features in place. In our enterprise plan, we also have the option to create multiple versions of the same assessment with questions of similar difficulty levels.
