Then capture a screen shot of the results, and email* them for their staffing file.
Email can be sent to HR advisor Laurena Murdock (laurena.murdock@tc.gc.ca) or Manager for forwarding

Oral Testing:

Book a meeting with a fully bilingual Manager (meaning Manager’s first language is French, or they have very high levels – EEE type of thing).
Manager has a discussion with the candidate to determine what level they think the candidate would obtain.
Test takers will be evaluated based on assessment criteria provided to assessors.
