Indeed I became kind of an expert regarding the SLE testing process and the tests themselves… not that I really wanted to though!

Usually, candidates are invited to take both the reading comprehension and written expression tests after they passed all the other exams and interviews… yet I have seen some people invited before the last interview.

Candidates get their results on an average of three to seven days… yet I have seen people get those results after up to six or seven weeks. Once the results are in, an email follows within a couple of days and I have to say that candidates are not given much time to prepare for the oral interaction interview… a couple of days or maybe two or three weeks if they are lucky.

And you got it! The whole process is not that easy after all… it is quite painful actually and the impact of those three tests is huge! You fail one and you are kicked out from the competition… My advice? Make sure you will be well prepared when you will take those tests…

You seem to know alot about these SLE tests and interview process. How about the delay? If I passed both comprehension and written tests, how long does it take them to call me in for the oral? Do they call all candidates who passed the other tests and interviews for an oral?

I read some of your articles today and realized it was not that easy after all.
