        "question": "Which skills does CEFRHub assess?",

      {
        "question": "Which CEFR level makes a candidate “bilingual”?",
        "answer": "The CEFR does not define a “bilingual” level: it describes what a person can do in each language. For a bilingual role, the employer sets the level expected in each language based on the tasks of the role, and CEFRHub assesses each language on the same scale."
