Better: I can have a solid version ready by Thursday. Would that still work?

Work negotiation readiness

Naturalness is the professional communication risk. The next step is not harder vocabulary; it is safer tone and clearer structure in pushback, concessions, deadlines, and client-safe disagreement.

Report story
B1, close to B2
Your strongest signals are pronunciation and vocabulary. The fastest improvement path is cleaning up naturalness and listening, then retesting in a focused diagnostic.
Already working
Pronunciation clarity is not the main thing blocking communication.
Vocabulary range is giving the profile more flexibility than basic survival English.
Writing is clear enough to communicate practical ideas.
Holding back the result
Translated-sounding phrases are one of the most visible weaknesses.
Listening speed is likely to break down in real conversations.
Real-life situations need more automatic survival phrases.
Fastest visible win: Workplace readiness: Add one reason and one concrete detail. Short answers usually understate your real level.
