TalentHubTH Brief: Use this guidance together with the actual role, industry, location and business context.

Define how Chinese will be used at work

A language score alone does not show whether a candidate can perform the job. State who they will communicate with, which documents they will handle and whether they must interpret, negotiate or coordinate operations.

  • Chinese coordinator
  • Sales or customer service for Chinese-speaking clients
  • Purchasing and supplier coordination
  • In-house interpreter or translator

Assess language together with job capability

Use a realistic work sample: a short call, email, product explanation, meeting summary or document translation. Also assess the professional skill required by the role.

Make the offer competitive for the actual scope

Pay should reflect language level, technical knowledge, responsibility, location and travel. Clear duties and growth opportunities help candidates compare the offer fairly.
