What SmallTalk2Me is

SmallTalk2Me measures English ability rather than teaching it. It assesses speaking and writing, reports results against CEFR levels and produces detailed reports, used both in hiring and in employee development programmes.

What you can do with it

  • Assess spoken English at scale
  • Assess written English
  • Report CEFR levels consistently
  • Track development over time
  • Compare candidates on the same scale

Who it is for

  • HR teams screening English proficiency
  • Hiring leaders with international teams
  • Learning and development managers

What to watch out for

  • Automated scoring should not be the only basis for rejection; offer a human re-check
  • CEFR reporting is the vendor's mapping to a public framework, not a certified exam result
  • Candidates should be told how results are used and stored
  • Accessibility and accommodations matter for candidates with speech or writing differences
