Questions before you begin

Where should I begin?+
Complete your profile first. If you are unsure about your knowledge, take a focused test; otherwise start with text practice or move directly into a live interview.
Do credits expire?+
Credits do not expire right now. You buy them once and there is no subscription.
Can I use the same account for different roles?+
Yes. You can prepare for several roles and choose the right one before each activity.
