# TOEIC for Job Seekers: get the score that gets you hired

> TOEIC practice built for job seekers in Japan and Korea: target the exact band employers screen for, drill the real business English hiring teams use, and build speaking confidence that beats interview nerves. Start with a free mock, get an AI plan of business-English drills ranked by points, and walk into hiring season interview-ready.

## How it works (three steps)
1. See the band employers want: take a free, timed mock in the current official format and get an instant score estimate, so you know exactly how far you are from the band your target companies screen for.
2. Close the gap fast: your AI coach builds a plan of business-English drills, ranked by how many points each is worth, so every session moves you toward the score you need before applications open.
3. Walk in interview-ready: practise Speaking tasks and pacing until real business English feels natural, so you answer with confidence when it counts.

## What score gets you screened in?
Every company sets its own bar, so always check the listing, but these are the bands hiring teams look for most.
- 600+ Résumé baseline: the score new graduates commonly list on applications so recruiters see workplace-ready English.
- 730+ Competitive: signals you can handle daily business English, the band that helps you stand out for most roles.
- 800+ Global companies: what trading firms, airlines and global-track positions commonly expect from strong applicants.
- 860+ Leadership track: CEFR B2 high, the level that marks you for international assignments and fast-track roles.

## FAQ

### What TOEIC score do employers want in Japan and Korea?
There is no single cut-off, but the pattern is consistent. Many companies treat 600 and above as a résumé baseline for new graduates, 730 and above as competitive for roles that use English regularly, and 800 or higher for global-track positions. Check each company's listing, then aim for the band that clears your top choices.

### Does a TOEIC score really help me get a job?
In Japan and Korea a TOEIC score is a standard item on application forms and résumés, so a recognised number is an easy way to show recruiters your workplace English. It rarely gets you hired on its own, but a score in the band a company screens for helps you clear the first filter and stand out from applicants who leave it blank.

### What score do global companies and trading firms expect?
Trading firms, airlines and global-track roles commonly look for 800 and above, and many strong candidates aim for 860, which maps to CEFR B2 high. These employers use English in daily work, so a solid Listening & Reading result plus Speaking evidence carries real weight. Confirm the exact figure on each posting, since it varies by role and division.

### How do I show my TOEIC score on a résumé?
List your total score, the test type such as Listening & Reading, and the test date, since scores are valid for two years. Put it in your qualifications or skills section near any other language results, and include a score only when it helps your application, generally 600 or higher for new graduates.

### Does TOEIC Speaking matter for getting hired?
Increasingly, yes. More employers now ask for TOEIC Speaking & Writing alongside Listening & Reading, especially for client-facing and global roles where you will actually talk with people. A Speaking result shows you can communicate, not just recognise English on paper, and practising for it doubles as interview preparation.

### How fast can I raise my score before application season?
With focused, targeted practice many test-takers gain around 50 to 100 points in 4 to 8 weeks, and the gain is faster when you drill the parts costing you the most points rather than everything equally. Start with a free mock to find your gap, then follow a plan that ranks fixes by score impact so you peak in time for applications.
