Process

After completing the form and creating your candidate account, you have 10 days to take the editorial test. This takes place online and takes about 2:30 of your time. A timer is triggered when you start the test. Don’t panic! If you have not completed the exercise on time, you can still download your document on our platform up to a maximum of 3.30 hours. After this period, however, the exercise is considered to have failed and the platform is no longer accessible. If the deadline of 2:30 is exceeded, we take into account the extent of your delay in the general assessment of the exercise.

Content

The online test consists in writing a summary of a speech from an audio extract. The test content is randomly selected from a dozen extracts. The topics are mainly economic and social. They allow us to assess your ability to understand and restore economic concepts and conduct research to clarify the language or rigorously restore the language used by the speaker. You must respect a number of words communicated before starting the exercise. This constraint allows us to assess your ability to select relevant information.

 Editorial style

Whether it is an economic presentation or a speech on a more general subject, we expect the author to give a presentation in impeccable French and an educational style. The words must be reproduced in clear, precise and elegant written French. Therefore, ban the use of an oral or familiar language register and avoid the trap of a return in a telegraphic or hashed style. The speech must be structured to mark the logical progression of the speech. 

Instructions

All instructions will be exhaustively reminded in the editorial test presentation page. Take the time to read them carefully before clicking on the “Start test” button!

 Reviewer feedback

Several proofreaders correct your exercise. You will receive feedback within ten days. If the test is positive, we will contact you by telephone to inform you and initiate the collaboration. If the opinion of the proofreaders is unfavourable, you are informed by email. You can of course contact us again to obtain details on the assessment of your exercise.
