About the Communication (Intermediate) test
Effective business communication entails more than just language proficiency; it involves communicating with clarity, connecting empathetically, and responding maturely. Individuals who consistently demonstrate excellent professional communication skills have the ability to forge strong relationships, lead more effectively, and enhance their visibility within their organization – as well as the organization’s visibility in the market.
Hiring candidates with strong communication skills will also help your organization succeed in less direct ways, as effective communication helps foster collaboration, enhance productivity, and promote a positive work environment, especially when they are placed in managerial or leadership positions.
This Intermediate Communication test evaluates candidates' skills in understanding, using, and interpreting written, verbal communication, and interpersonal communication in a business context, as well as their skills in active listening and nonverbal communication.
Candidates who perform well on this screening test can listen attentively to others, communicate with confidence and open-mindedness, and offer both empathy and feedback in the appropriate scenarios and in the appropriate manner.

Any tool can have functions—bells and whistles. Not every tool comes armed with staff passionate about making the user experience positive.
The TestGorilla team only offers useful insights to user challenges, they engage in conversation.
For instance, I recently asked a question about a Python test I intended to implement. Instead of receiving “oh, that test would work perfectly for your solution,” or, “at this time we’re thinking about implementing a solution that may or may not…” I received a direct and straightforward answer with additional thoughts to help shape the solution.
I hope that TestGorilla realizes the value proposition in their work is not only the platform but the type of support that’s provided.
For a bit of context—I am a diversity recruiter trying to create a platform that removes bias from the hiring process and encourages the discovery of new and unseen talent.
