Is it a good place to work?
Candidato
Yes, it's actually a good place to work since I'm output based and not really time bounded. So I start work at 9:00 AM and ends with whenever my meeting ends. And usually I just usually do overtime when there is quality issues.
Examinador
Would you like the place where you work?
Candidato
I'd say just in the middle ground. It's not super big like the huge FMCG multinational companies like PNG and Unilever. However, I think it's still an ideal location since it's not too crowded and not too corporate. We're actually in a industrial.

What are your future work plans?
Candidato
My future work plans is to jump into big multinational companies in the Philippines so I can have a higher base salary. Although as of the moment, I have the best benefits, even better than the MNCS. However, my base salary is not that high so I'm aiming for a better opportunity.
Do you work or are you a student?
Puntuación: 68.0Sugerencia: Be more concise and organized: start with a clear topic sentence (job title and duration), then add one or two specific supporting details (company type or background). Avoid repetition and grammatical errors (use correct tense and articles). Use linking words to show sequence (e.g., "I have been working... After graduating...").
Ejemplo: I work as a Quality Assurance and Regulatory Manager at a nutrition products company; I have held this role for about one year. I started my professional career two years ago after graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology, which helps me handle technical and regulatory tasks in a STEM-related field.
Where do you work?
Puntuación: 72.0Sugerencia: Provide a clear, fluent statement about your workplace and avoid awkward phrasing. Combine short sentences using linking words and correct article use. Give one specific detail about the company and one about your working arrangement.
Ejemplo: I work at Greenhouse Incorporated, which markets personal-care brands under the name Zen Nutrients — for example, their anti-hair fall and curl-care shampoos. I work on-site five days a week.
Is it a good place to work?
Puntuación: 66.0Sugerencia: Be grammatically accurate and more fluent: state a clear opinion, then support it with specific reasons using linking words (because, so, although). Correct verb forms and remove repetition. Give one concrete example of flexibility or culture.
Ejemplo: Yes, it's a good place to work because my role is output-based rather than strictly time-bound. I typically start at 9:00 AM and finish after my meetings, and I only work overtime when quality issues arise.
Would you like the place where you work?
Puntuación: 64.0Sugerencia: Make your opinion clearer and use correct vocabulary and structure. Start with a topic sentence (your overall feeling), then give two specific comparisons or reasons using linking words (for example, "because" or "however"). Fix word choice (e.g., 'in an industrial area' or 'a small to mid-sized company').
Ejemplo: I'm ambivalent — it's a mid-sized company rather than a huge FMCG multinational like P&G or Unilever. That suits me because the workplace isn't overcrowded or overly corporate, and our offices are located in an industrial area.
What are your future work plans?
Puntuación: 70.0Sugerencia: Answer with a clear plan and reasons, using correct grammar and linking words. Begin with a direct statement of your goal, then explain why and mention current situation briefly. Avoid contradiction without transition words.
Ejemplo: I plan to move to a large multinational company in the Philippines to secure a higher base salary. Although my current job offers excellent benefits — arguably better than many MNCs — my base pay is lower, so I'm pursuing opportunities that improve my long-term compensation.
× I'm working right now so I'm at quality assurance and regulatory manager for about one year, so I started working two years ago.
✓ I'm working right now as a quality assurance and regulatory manager and have been in this role for about one year; I started working two years ago.
The original mixes present continuous with incorrect preposition/role expression and time reference. Use 'as' to indicate role and present perfect 'have been' to show duration up to now. Also combine clauses for clarity.
× I graduated Bachelor of Science in Microbiology so I'm focusing on STEM related and technical services as a professional.
✓ I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology, so I focus on STEM-related and technical services professionally.
Need the article 'a' and the preposition 'with' after 'graduated'. 'STEM-related' should be hyphenated as a compound adjective, and 'focus' fits present simple for general facts. Use 'professionally' instead of 'as a professional' for conciseness.
× I currently work at the Greenhouse Incorporated.
✓ I currently work at Greenhouse Incorporated.
Company names usually do not need the definite article 'the' unless part of the official name. Removing 'the' makes the phrase natural.
× Our branding is Zen Nutrients.
✓ Our brand name is Zen Nutrients.
'Branding' refers to the process; 'brand name' is the correct noun to identify the product label.
× So if you're familiar with Google anti hair full shampoo by Zen Nutrients and curls by Zen Nutrients.
✓ For example, you might be familiar with Zen Nutrients' Anti Hairfall Shampoo and Curls product lines.
Original is a sentence fragment and awkwardly ordered. Provide a complete sentence and possessive form for brand products; correct product names for clarity.
× So I'm currently in an on site setting five days a week.
✓ I'm currently working on-site five days a week.
Use 'working' with 'on-site' (hyphenated) and place time expression at the end. 'On site setting' is redundant.
× Yes, it's actually a good place to work since I'm output based and not really time bounded.
✓ Yes, it's actually a good place to work because I'm output-based and not strictly time-bound.
Use 'because' for reason, hyphenate 'output-based' and 'time-bound' as compound adjectives; 'strictly' is more natural than 'really' in this context.
× So I start work at 9:00 AM and ends with whenever my meeting ends.
✓ I start work at 9:00 AM and finish when my meetings end.
Subject 'I' requires verbs 'start' and 'finish' (not 'ends'). Use plural 'meetings' if meetings vary and 'when' is the correct conjunction. Avoid 'ends with'.
× And usually I just usually do overtime when there is quality issues.
✓ I usually work overtime when there are quality issues.
Remove duplicate 'usually', use 'work overtime' (natural collocation), and match plural 'issues' with 'there are'.
× I'd say just in the middle ground.
✓ I'd say it's just in the middle ground.
Sentence lacks a verb; adding 'it's' completes the clause. This falls under sentence structure but specifically needs a verb to be grammatical.
× It's not super big like the huge FMCG multinational companies like PNG and Unilever.
✓ It's not as big as huge FMCG multinationals like P&G and Unilever.
Use 'as big as' for comparison, 'multinationals' plural without 'companies' is fine, and correct company name 'P&G'. Avoid repeating 'like'.
× However, I think it's still an ideal location since it's not too crowded and not too corporate.
✓ However, I think it's still an ideal workplace because it's not too crowded or too corporate.
'Location' can be 'workplace' for clarity; use 'or' between negatives and 'because' for reason.
× We're actually in a industrial.
✓ We're actually in an industrial area.
Use 'an' before a vowel sound and 'industrial area' to complete the noun phrase; 'industrial' alone is an adjective.
× My future work plans is to jump into big multinational companies in the Philippines so I can have a higher base salary.
✓ My future work plan is to join large multinational companies in the Philippines so I can have a higher base salary.
Use singular 'plan' with 'is' or plural 'plans' with 'are'. 'Join' is more natural than 'jump into', and 'large' fits better than 'big'.
× Although as of the moment, I have the best benefits, even better than the MNCS.
✓ At the moment, I have the best benefits, even better than those at MNCs.
Use 'At the moment' or 'As of now' for time phrase, write 'MNCs' (multinational corporations) and refer to 'those at MNCs' for clarity.
× However, my base salary is not that high so I'm aiming for a better opportunity.
✓ However, my base salary is not very high, so I'm aiming for a better opportunity.
'Not that high' is informal; 'not very high' is clearer. Add a comma before 'so' linking independent clauses.
