The selection factors and points awarded are available here:
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/publications/fr/divers/Grille-synthese.pdf

(No, this document is not available in English).

There is also the evaluation form, which tells you if you may be eligible, but doesn't specify the number of points:

Hello everyone!

I'm planning to apply to the QSW when they reopen their intake period for 2015. My question is: do I need to know any amount of French in order to qualify?

Currently, I have zero knowledge of French. Can I still apply? Anyway learning French when I get there is no problem with me.

Also, if ever I get accepted and they start processing my application, would it be okay for me to leave my country of residency while my application is being processed?

I'm planning to work abroad for a while after I've submitted my application from here in Manila, Philippines.

Your response is highly appreciated. Thank you!

Yes you can apply with zero French, if you qualify through other factors; try the online evaluation:
http://www.form.services.micc.gouv.qc.ca/epi/index.jsp?languageCode=en

That said, I would STRONGLY advise you to start learning French now. Unless you are highly skilled in a high demand sector, it's very difficult to get a job in Quebec without French. Also, Quebec immigration can and do evaluate your adaptability based on whether you are already making the effort to learn. I suggest reading this:
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/permanent-workers/official-immigration-application/obstacles-job.html

Also, if ever I get accepted and they start processing my application, would it be okay for me to leave my country of residency while my application is being processed?

Yes, you can work outside your country while your application is processing.

To give useful help, we would need some details on the reasons for the intention to refuse letter. Start by reading:

Thanks for the prompt response! :)

Fortunately, I've passed the online application despite having zero French knowledge.
Also, I will only learn French if they confirm that they'll process my application. AFAIK the processing takes quite a while, right? So long that it should be enough time for anyone to learn a new language.

If I am to work outside my country during the processing of my application, do I need to inform Quebec or CIC of my present location?
I only plan to start working abroad after I've submitted my QSW application from my present country.
I will only move to Singapore to work there temporarily, but my true home will still be in the residence address that I will indicate in my application.

Options re. my location at the time application submission and processing:
A. Do I have to inform CIC and Quebec of my actual location/s at the time of processing?
B. Or do I need to put my location/residence only at the time I submitted my application?
C. Or do I only need to indicate my permanent address/true home regardless of my location/s during the processing?

TIA!

PS:
Not sure why I'm getting this prompt. How do you bypass? Fairly new here and still unfamiliar of do's/don't's
