It is the Best Organization for internal employees

Everyday we use to maintain British Council Standards and the whole center standard services from pre-examination to after-examination process. I've learned the test administration process from the start to the end include; Receiving/Distribution of Question Papers/Answer Scripts How to Secure Answer Scripts and Question Papers Venue Branding up to British Council Standards Proper Emergency Evacuation Plan and Briefing to Candidates Adequate Arrangements for Hall/Rooms Proper Daily Filing with all the necessary documentations Packing and unpacking Question Papers Briefing to Candidates about Examination Rules and Regulations Supervisor Checklist First Aid Solutions Our management is very efficient and professional, that can notify your mistakes and appreciate your efforts on time. Well Our Co-workers are always cooperative and comfortable to work with. The hardest part of the job is to maintain standards all the time but when you do that consistently then it's part of your job. Next if you did a small mistake unintentionally try not to give justification, just listen and try not to repeat that mistake again. The most important part of the job is when you communicate with different types of candidates and briefing on microphone in a big hall is kind of fun.

Pros

professional working environment, respect and learning process
