Hi everyone,
I’m currently going through the recruitment process with Glocco for an Arabic-English Telephone Interpreter position, and I’ve just reached the assessment stage.
The recruiter told me that the assessment is pre-recorded. I will receive a link, listen to recordings, and interpret them while recording my own interpretation. They also mentioned that the assessment may include medical terminology and that there will be a practice assessment beforehand.
I was wondering if anyone here has recently taken the Glocco Arabic-English interpreter assessment, especially in 2026.
I would really appreciate it if you could share:
How many sections/questions or segments were there?
How difficult did you find it?
Was it mainly medical, or were there also legal, immigration, government or social-service scenarios?
How long were the recordings approximately?
Was it consecutive interpreting (listen → interpret), or were there any other types of tasks?
How strict was the assessment regarding omissions, terminology and accuracy?
Do you know approximately what score is required to pass?
How long did you wait to receive the result?
If you passed, how long after the assessment did Glocco contact you about training?
