Language support is a property of a journey, not a single translated page. A candidate can encounter a careers page, an application, an assessment, an invitation and an interview workflow in the same process.
Evaluate each surface in the language your team intends to use. Do the same for Spanish or any other required language.
Build a language coverage matrix
| Surface | What to verify | Useful acceptance evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Public website | Relevant product information and navigation | A direct language URL with readable content |
| Recruiter workspace | Labels, dates, errors and permissions | The required task completed by its intended user |
| Careers and application | Questions, validation and submitted content | A mobile application in the intended language |
| Assessments | Assigned language and instrument-specific availability | The actual assigned assessment and result interpretation |
| Notifications | Subject, body, dates and delivery | The authorized recipient receives the expected message |
| Reports | Headings, charts, evidence and exports | The intended reviewer can interpret the result |
Check right-to-left behavior
For Arabic, inspect the actual form and reading order rather than only whether the text has been translated. Names, email addresses, telephone numbers and mixed-language job titles can expose layout problems.
- Review field labels, validation errors and button order on a narrow screen.
- Use the keyboard to move through the form and confirm visible focus.
- Check mixed Arabic and Latin text without rewriting the candidate's original information.
- Verify dates, time zones, numbers and downloadable output.
Preserve the hiring team's assigned process
Confirm who chooses the language and when. A language switch on the marketing website does not establish that a candidate can change the language of an assigned assessment.
For any assessment, ask for its specific language availability, instructions and interpretation limits. Translation is not evidence that an instrument is validated for a hiring decision.
Evaluate the relevant HireHint surfaces
HireHint has public website routes in English, Arabic and Spanish. Check the specific recruiter and candidate workflows you need using the appropriate product guides and a demonstration.
Record unsupported or unverified combinations separately. Ask about the exact assessment, report, notification and provider-dependent action instead of relying on a general multilingual label.
