Please indicate your language / communication level below:
I can use an extensive range of English suitable for all business occasions, equivalent to that which I use in my own language.	C2
I can use English effectively in most business situations with few problems. I can express my own ideas fluently on a range of social and relevant business topics with a style appropriate to the international business context. I can understand speakers from different backgrounds with different accents and can use a listening style which makes my international partners feel comfortable. I am able to influence and persuade individuals with different personality types and cultural backgrounds.	C1
I can understand and contribute to conversations and discussions with fluency and spontaneity on a range of business and general topics with reasonable clarity. I can explain more complex issues effectively and develop clear argumentation, but find the task of persuading and managing conflicts more challenging.	B2
I can usually participate effectively in discussions if other speakers moderate their speed of speech and the conversation is about familiar topics. My fluency is sometimes limited because of uncertainties with grammar, vocabulary and / or pronunciation. I need tolerance from more advanced speakers of English when trying to explain more complex arguments.	B1
If people speak slowly and clearly, I can participate in small talk on a limited range of subjects about myself and my job. I can manage simple social situations, such as meeting and greeting, offering hospitality and giving information on agenda and organisation of a social visit.	A2
I can have a simple conversation in English. I can introduce myself and can answer questions about my personal details, for example job, employer, country of residence, home and family. I often need the help of other people to communicate my ideas.	A1
