A language test designed for the final stages of recruitment
Save time
ELAO Select is a precise, fast, and easy-to-deploy online test. It is the ideal choice for selecting the right candidate at the end of a recruitment process.
A speaking skills assessment
Thanks to the integration of a speaking module and detailed reports, ELAO Select helps reduce the risk of error before a strategic hire.

An in-depth language assessment to make the right decisions
Confirm that the required level is genuinely mastered
ELAO Select allows hiring managers to accurately validate whether a candidate masters the language level expected for the role — particularly when B2 or C1 is an essential prerequisite.
The speaking skills assessment adds an extra layer of insight, which is especially useful for management roles or positions with a strong international dimension. Everything is available online through our management platform.

A CEFR assessment available online and among the most precise on the market
Like every ELAO test, ELAO Select relies on a CEFR methodology recognised for its precision.
- A complete, detailed report giving the level on the CEFR scale
- Four sub-levels within each CEFR band for a finer assessment
- An additional A0 level
- In-depth analysis of speaking skills via the ELAO+ module
This granularity lets recruiters compare candidates objectively from our management platform, and align their decisions with the language requirements of the role.
Discover ELAO Screening
Optional proctoring to secure your assessments

For sensitive or high-stakes recruitment, ELAO Select can be combined with an online proctoring solution, available as an optional add-on.
The candidate simply installs a plugin on their browser. The test is then monitored automatically throughout the assessment. HR managers access a dedicated platform where they can check whether any cheating attempt has been detected.
This proctoring solution is powered by a partnership with Mereos, a recognised specialist in online exam supervision. Proctoring is also available for the ELAO Screening test (without the speaking module).
