The Chinese translation of TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication) is the test of English for International Communication. Unlike BEC, which uses British English, TOEIC emphasizes the use of international English instead of American English or British English. Professional knowledge in a professional field is more suitable for candidates from different majors, different backgrounds, and different regions to take the exam.
In previous years, many companies recognized or used TOEIC scores as one of the recruitment requirements, including Bank of China, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, China Construction Bank, State Grid, Sinopec, China National Offshore Oil Corporation, China Mobile, China Unicom, China Southern Airlines, Hainan Airlines , IBM, Procter & Gamble, FAW Group, Shanghai Volkswagen, Volvo, Ford, Schneider, Mars, Samsung, LG, Hyundai, Canon, Panasonic, Lenovo, Huawei, etc.
It should be noted that the listening and reading tests, the oral and writing tests of the TOEIC test are conducted separately, and the certificates are also issued separately. If you only pass the listening and reading exams, you can get a professional English proficiency certificate (Class B); if you pass the listening and reading exams and the oral and writing exams, you will get a professional English proficiency certificate (Class A).
