Questions people ask

Can I use the example answers word for word?

Treat them as models. An interviewer wants to hear your own experience, so change the details to match your life and your job.

Is this legal or immigration advice?

No. EasySay teaches English wording. It does not give legal or immigration advice, and it cannot tell you what an employer may ask.

Do I need an account?

No. The practice pages are free and open to everyone.
