Job Description

We are looking for a young professional who has native or close-to-native command of written English.

As a Test Writer, you will develop and construct test questions and passages to measure the proficiency level of test-takers.

You will work with the Assessment Development team to create best-in-class assessment questions that are used for both business recruitment and academic admission purposes.

An ideal candidate should have work experience in education or editorial writing.

Job Requirements

To be shortlisted for this position, you are kindly required to summarize the passage below instead of answering the pre-screening question. (use the answer space to write your summary).

Most consumers are aware of the name of the operating system (OS) they have on their devices, especially on their smartphones. It is also clear that to most consumers, operating system is an important feature. When buying a new device, consumers prioritize price, device features such as screen size and resolution, and now, more frequently, security. However, operating system is also among the top five selection criteria for PCs and tablets. While touch screen and look and feel rank higher in importance than operating system for smartphones, OS is within the top seven selection criteria for these devices as well. Yet, our data shows that platform users are not as loyal as the “platform war” stories in the media indicate. While the majority are aware of the OS they have on devices, less than half of consumers think it’s very important to stay within one operating system for their devices. To investigate this trend further, we analyzed the responses of a segment of respondents we labeled “strong users” of a single platform, defined as those owning at least two devices that use the same operating system. Among the strong users of a single platform, only half think it’s very important to stay within one operating system for their devices. In fact, about one-fifth of this group actually seems to be strong users by coincidence: They say they don’t have a preferred OS or don’t care what operating system they have.Furthermore, strong users offer more reasons than the overall consumer sample as to why they would buy devices on other platforms. About one-third of strong users indicate they would switch to another OS to see what else is out there in the market, to find a better user experience or to get access to more innovative services and applications. Continued curiosity and the drive for innovative services and user experiences appear to be more compelling than loyalty to any particular platform in the market today—creating more opportunity for market players.
