How much do foreign languages help in ASEP?
If your aim is to boost your candidacy in a public sector recruitment or a major public competition, you’ve probably wondered: how many points do foreign languages give in ASEP? The answer is simple—much more than you think!
Foreign languages are now one of the strongest evaluation criteria for public sector recruitment: from Municipal Police to public schools and all public agencies. Therefore, obtaining a recognized foreign language certificate is not just “nice to have,” it is a decisive investment in your career.
Scoring foreign languages in ASEP.
The score depends on the level of language proficiency:
-Excellent knowledge (C2): 70 points
-Very good knowledge (C1): 50 points
-Good knowledge (B2): 30 points
Thus, a Proficiency (C2) or equivalent certificate like IELTS, TOEIC, OCN, etc., secures 70 points, enough to move several positions higher and bring you closer to the coveted appointment.
Scoring for educators
For those aiming for teaching positions – kindergarten teachers, primary teachers, high school teachers – language knowledge is even more important:
C2 in two foreign languages: +7 points per language
C1 in two foreign languages: +5 points per language
B2 in two foreign languages: +3 points per language
In simple terms, an additional certificate – like German, Spanish, French – can significantly boost your overall score.
Extra bonus: Second foreign language
Here lies the big gain! ASEP gives extra points to those with a second foreign language (English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, or any other listed language).
The scoring is the same: C2: 70 points, C1: 50 points, B2: 30 points
This means that mastering another foreign language multiplies your chances of appointment—whether it’s a general recruitment or teaching positions.
Important notes:
Scoring is cumulative for multiple languages.
The maximum number of foreign languages that can be scored is usually three.
The above points relate to the level of the language, not the certificate itself.
Conclusion:
Foreign language certificates are not just an additional qualification—they are the strongest asset for those aiming to stand out in ASEP competitions and significantly increase their scoring.
