An increasing number of job hunters, especially those looking for work at a multinational, are also looking at the Test of English for International Communication, or TOEIC test, which was developed to test everyday language skills in the workplace.
Walter Wang, president and co-founder of ATA Inc, a Nasdaq-listed company, believes ATA has created a new industry in China.
In China, an English examination is attracting more and more job-hunting graduates and white-collar workers who intend to climb the career ladder, according to ATA Co, the largest professional services provider of testing, assessment and related services in China.
The TOEIC was introduced into China in 2002 by the Chinese Ministry of Labor and Social Security.
And they use it to consider people for placement at the right level in language programs. Several thousand companies, English programs and government agencies use the TOEIC.
Chinese TOEFL test takers can get their score reports online within two weeks, making the testing process more efficient and user friendly, according to an executive with Educational Testing Service (ETS), the creator of both the TOEFL and TOEIC tests.
